It seems no one knows the answer to your question, adeel.

I don't.

My suggestion is to contact the theater owners and ask them what they
look for when booking a movie. If they want to hear the complete story then
tell them, if they don't then leave that out.

I hope that when you get information from cinema owners you will come
back here and tell us what you learned.

If you don't feel comfortable telling cinema owners your
story, then don't tell them.

But do you seriously think that cinema owners will copy
your idea, write, produce and edit the movie before you
do and put it in their cinemas?

ok i have contacted to around 70 cinema owners via website the first reply is

It is too hard to get screens this way I am afraid Adeel. So many films
are
being released that you need a Distributor along with marketing
expertise.

Thanks for the information, abdeel.

So the answer to your questions seems to be, no, you can't sell the movie directly
to the cinema holders so that they can show the movie in their studios. But it looks
like your number 1 and 2 ideas will still work.

well i got few more email.the best advise was from australia.they said tht directly getting attention of cinema owners is nearly impossible so show your movie at festivals. this will make you on abetter position because if the movie is great distributors will come by themself towards you
