Recently, I had been to the PVR Multiplex Cinema Hall in Chandigarh.
I reside in Sector 31 in Chandigarh.The PVR , known as the Centra Mall is in the Industrial Area I(nearly 2 KM from my residence).I went along with my wife and three year old Daughter.
As, the Online Advance Booking Facility was available, I got it for Rs 330(@ Rs 150 each(Rs 30 extra as `Convenience Charge`!).This facility is impressive as I had the chance to choose my favorite seats.The reference number was delivered with some more relevant details on my Mobile Phone.
The Movie was to started 1130 AM.We reached at 1110.I just produced one Photo i/d(my D/L) and the reference number.A Ticket got printed and provided to me with a polite thanks.
I parked the car in the parking(Bottom 2, B2)for Rs 25 Prepaid(high amount, I feel).I found my car was checked for any undesirable material by the security personnel.
I got the Lift from the parking lot itself ! It was Air conditioned and Escorted by a trained man.I even spotted the Handy Fire Extinguisher.My daughter enjoyed it more by looking from the glass wall of the lift and going up at a decent speed.
The ticket was checked separately for me and my wife(lady staff for her).Staff was polite, well dressed and good looking.But sadly they took out all eatables in the purse of my wife(had chocolate and a biscuit packet).
Wow! we were at the Air conditioned floor and many people waiting for their turns.They were chatting and some were enjoying the scene of outside world from this forth floor.There were many LCDs on which clips of upcoming movies were being shown.One side Hero Honda Pleasure scooterrete of white and red mix colour was kept with side railing so that nobody touches it.
I could see few print advertisements too in all interesting way possible.My God, how much research they do just to earn extraaaaaa.The cafeteria was selling every item minimum three times the prevailing market price.But there was no way out.As our eatable was already deposited, I purchase a big cup of pop corn for Rs 50.I was imagining that in my house I would myself have cut a ACT II Sachet of Rs 10 and have more quantity than this !!
At Exact 11:25, we were in.We were happy indeed to feel the Ambiance inside the hall.It was better Air Conditioned and clean.The seats were reclining of special type.The number given to each seat was Alphanumeric.Ours was E1 and E2.Every line of seats were well illuminated, so we did not have any problem locating it.However I had seen the seats well in advance on my Laptop screen !!.
The Movie started at 1135 after 4-5 small advertisements.No issue.But my daughter had some other plans.As the hall was quite spacious she started insisting for playing by running here and there!!.I could not deny it as the repeated requests from my daughter was disturbing others, I felt.But I felt to escort her sometimes by sitting at my seat or running behind her.But, you know, I too enjoyed along with my daughter.
Meanwhile, the Intermission came.My daughter insisted for the urinals.I escorted her.The toilet is one of the best place in this PVR.It has individual LCD screens, Good Looking Glass and Hot air blowers with sensors to get your hands dried.The prevailing fragrented atmosphere was good making the mood better for almost every one.
While coming back, I saw huge rush at the cafe for their choice of eatables(in fact choice less !!).In Punjabion ke paas bahut paisa hai , LoL!!
I had come back after about ten minutes.But, the advertisements were still on for next 15 minutes that day.I felt like to complain about it, but somehow I restricted myself.These tacts are intentionally done to have more sell at the Premium rate cafeteria.
This half, my daughter, thankfully kept quite and I saw the movie uninterruptedly.I could not feel how next one and half hour passed.The movie was over and my kid was sleeping comfortably !!.
While coming down I preferred the downstairs to the Lift as it was getting overcrowded.
Overall, a good change from day today activities.My family was more happy and they truly enjoyed it.
