The demolition of the old "Chatyr-Kul" cinema is actively underway. The press service of the Bishkek mayor's office shared photos from the work site.

The Capital Construction Department has fenced off the area, and demolition work on the building has begun.

Recall that on November 5, 2025, a fire occurred in the cinema, which caused significant damage. After that, the mayor of Bishkek visited the scene and instructed the services to develop a plan for further actions and expedite the implementation of a new project. At the time of the incident, the building was in a semi-ruined state: windows and doors were broken, the territory was unmaintained, and the cinema had remained empty for a long time.
