On 31 August 2007, Shyamoli Cinema Hall closed because the building was being demolished and replaced with the high-rise Shyamoli Square Shopping Mall. At the initiative of M.A. Gaffar's five sons, the cinema reopened in the mall on 14 April 2014, screening Glow of the Firefly. Modern facilities were added to the movie theater and the number of seats was reduced to 306.
