There were 51 cinema halls in Tangail in the 1990s. But only five managed to survive while 46 could not due to lack of audience.
The owners still think it is possible to keep the business alive if movies with engaging stories and good production value are made and digitized cinema halls can be built with government assistance. 
The cinema hall business in Tangail started with Raushan Talkies built at a secluded corner of the then small municipal town in 1950 by Lebu Chawdhury.
