Reliance ADA Group acquired Adlabs Films Limited in 2005, one of the largest entertainment companies in India, which has interests in film processing, production, exhibition & digital cinema.
Reliance BIG Entertainment made an entry into the FM Radio business through Adlabs Radio Big 92.7 FM. Having won 45 stations in the bidding, BIG 92.7 FM was India’s largest private FM radio network with 12 radio stations across the country as on 28 February 2007, with more being launched in the following months.
Big Cinemas is India’s largest cinema chain with over 516 screens spread across India, US, Malaysia and Netherlands. The chain caters to over 35 million consumers. BIG Cinemas has established leadership in film exhibition in India with 253 screens and accounts for 10 to 15% of box office contributions of large movies.
Reliance MediaWorks (RMW) studio, spread across seven acres, will have eight stages built to stringent acoustical and structural specifications.
It has already attracted Hollywood's attention. Legendary filmmaker Oliver Stone, who got a preview of the studio during his visit, had said, "After what I have seen here, there is a possibility of me coming back to make a movie here, after all." Films such as Chronicles of Narnia and Mission Impossible 4 (in which the Vancouver Convention Centre in Canada will stand-in for India) can now be shot at RMW studios. J Scott Carter of Los Angeles-based Wylie-Carter Architects, which is building the facility, says, "RMW's expanding global capabilities allow 24/7 production partnerships with the best producers in the business, and direct digital tie-ins with production teams in Europe, Asia, and North America." Reliance MediaWorks has already spent over 100 crore on the first phase of the studio, which has three super silent 'sync sound' capable stages.
