I also saw nishabd

Today after spending about 35 hrs continous without sleep, I went to watch nishabd. Nishabd is the latest Amitabh Bachchan release, making headlines for all the wrong reasons. 60 year old guy falling in love with 18yr old girl. A good discussion has been done on it by my friend thanku in his blog whose link you can find in the bottom of this page. So I don’t need to go into that side of the movie. I went for the movie with my roomie. I enjoy movies the most when I go with her alone. We have our own little jokes, and crazy fun which we can never have with a big gang or a boy friend . We went to watch it in PVR cinemas, one of my fav hangout spots. So it’s a multiplex , and I had to pay 130 Rs for the movie. What I am implying is it`s not a low end theatre I am watching the movie in. I think I have emphasized enough on that. So while I was watching Giah Khan`s long beautiful legs from fifteen different angles, my roomie kept on asking me if I was stamping her. I didn’t pay any attention to her rants, I had better things to do. (Don’t expect any guy putting his leg on our seat story now, that I assume only happens in Thodupuzha* theatre ) I told her I was not stamping anything, till after a few minutes I felt a big living object pass by my legs. I froze, threw away my sandals and pulled my feet up on my seat, and turned to lavan (her name) and asked”did u just stamp me?” Both of us realized it was a third living being taking turns stamping us and not each other. I don’t particularly remember how Amitabh fell in love with Giah, after that. My mind was preoccupied with trying to imagine the different forms of God`s creations which could have brushed my feet. I was sitting in a multiplex theatre like how my great-grand mom sits on our dining table. Lavan has a nokia 1100 which is blessed with a torch light which my mp3 playing 1.3 Mega pixel 6131 set doesn’t have. We started frantically searching for the object, beneath our chairs. I was also hunting for my sandals which I threw in panic. We couldn’t find anything, but my imagination ran wild. I thought it could be a snake. And what if it bites us. But what was scarier was the thought that it could be a puppy. I am a muslim, and we are not supposed to touch puppies ,if at all we do, we should take bath 7 times, once being in sand, if my memory serves me right. Amitabh is teary now, he`s lost the laughter he had when the long legs were around. I think his wife found out. Anyway who cares, lavan whispers in my ear if it’s a baby crawling. Now that cracked me up (see why i enjoy going out with her). I was dying for the movie to end to start our real search. But the crowd probably scared the living being off. This movie had created waves , with its concept and I came out of the theatre thinking if I should voluntarily take the 7-time bath. PVR is one of the best theatres , and I continue to be loyal to it. But a puppy(it is a puppy, i am sure now ) doing the rounds during a movie is totally unacceptable. A silly brush in my feet made me forget the big screen in front of me. Explains the captivating power of the movie . I blame it on Ram Gopal Verma cause I have watched enough and more movies in my Thodupuzha theatre poking a pin into the fellow`s feet which is trying to rest in my seat behind, and still enjoyed it thoroughly. thodupuzha--place in north kerala. My Grandparents stay there.

Haha... are u sure it wasn't Gia Khan's long legs, getting longer and stamping you??:):) lol.. anyways, its hard to believe PVR is being careless about cleaniness... which means 130 is not enough for them to offer a good movie experience, or they just dont care???

Nice story Nasia...I can clarify the doubt u have about the 'thing' that brushed ur legs.....Just 2 days ago, i noticed a rat running through the theatre during the interval. I was shocked and kept thinking about it for a long time... It really is sad when u pay loads of money to watch a movie and u realize that the multiplex is not keen about keepin the place neat.
