Accessibility of Films in Theatres:

Same Language Captions and Audio Description

Updated on: 31st Aug 2026

This page tracks whether accessibility features like Same Language Captions (SLC) and Audio Description (AD) are available for films released in Indian theatres through supporting mobile applications. Coverage began with the week of 17 July 2026 and is reviewed and updated on a monthly cycle as new titles are released

Films are drawn from a running IMDb list of Indian theatrical releases and reviewed weekly. For each movie title, major ticketing platforms are checked for whether their movie listing names a supporting app (such as MovieReading, CineDubs, ADX by PostX, XL Cinema, Earcatch, or Greta).
