At last the much-awaited movie Agneepeth was here.As per plan, I went with my hubby and daughter in tow.Once again we opted to view the movie in a single screen theater rather than at a multiplex.Amazing how it is so nostalgic,a sweet memory of the way films were watched in our yester-years.There is another charm to these dinghy,oh-so-downmarket (as some would say) theaters........and who can deny that they are a much cheaper option too.
The movie ticket proudly stated that the movie hall was air-cooled,whatever that means.The playing of the National Anthem always brings on the goose-bumps........especially the one which is picturised at Kargil.
It is always an added bonus to get to view at least one or two movie trailors.......and of course who can miss the old,I mean very old advertisements that we have been seeing from the days of our childhood-Vicco Turmeric,Vicco Vajradanti,Fair and Lovely........still remember these jingles.
The movie, as expected, was great.It had all the masala needed in a bollywood movie.The movie hall was filled with cat-calls and whistles at the entry of Kancha Cheena,Vijay Dinanath Chavan and Priyanka.Priyanka's Marathi mulgi dialogues got the cheers and the moment Chikni Chameli came on the screen there was utter tandem!Those in the stalls went berserk!There was so much of cheering and dancing.............for them it was paisa vasool!Would you get to see this kind of excitement at a multiplex?
The interval called for the A-1 samosas that are really delicious..........much better option than the 50 bucks worth popcorn available at the multiplexes.So with a 10 rupee popcorn pack for company we watched the rest of the movie.We sat till the very end of the movie and wondered why people get up to move out even before the movie is over.When you are out to enjoy a movie,watch it till the credits roll in the end,as we did.
Mera verdict-Film hit hai!!!!!!!
Next time you plan to go for a movie do try out the single screen experience,it will surely bring back memories.
