Victorian Gothic Cinema House Victorian Gothic cinema house in south Mumbai built during the British colonization of India. The Capitol is one of the oldest cinema houses located across from the city’s main train station. Over the years, lack of maintenance and upkeep, changes in liner tenants, unregulated and inappropriate façade changes (lit box signs and window air conditioning units), and competition from new and modernized multi-screen cinema houses have driven this once-popular family movie house to cater to a more B-rated film audience.
