Ok so i am getting ready for dedicated theatre room. Normal bedroom has many issues. I want to know the list of all the material required to build the room. After concrete walls, What all material required to stick on walls and all that, Please guide thanks. On my roof this area is idle. I will first build concrete walls then treat it.

Where do you live?

What are the relevant building codes?

Do you need a construction permit?

Awesome!!!

After concrete walls
That's fine. The main feature of concrete is that it helps to block sound from getting in or out. It doesn't change the sound inside that much. It's pretty-much the same as any hard surface and you'll want similar "treatment". Concrete will help if you have neighbors (or other people in the house) that you don't want to annoy and it will help to block any outside noise if that's a problem.

I have nearby neighbors and I'd listen louder (occasionally) if they couldn't hear it.

"Soundproofing" is important in a recording studio to block the outside noise.
