Movie experience at Vellore - WOW!!!

Being a movie buff, I was always dissappointed when it comes to watching a movie in Vellore: not many theatres are good here. I was hoping for a breakthrough : Reliance Adlabs has acquired 2 theatres in vellore (Lakshmi and Alankar) and renovated them to a great extent.

This, i heard from my brother and my cousin. I was waiting for a chance to visit those theatres, and, the area's power system went down for maintainence. So, I immediately prompted my parents to go to a movie at one of those theatres (although i had already watched that movie). The moment i entered the theatre premises, i sensed the changes: computerised ticketing, advance booking over the web / phone, well furnished seatings, good sound systems, completely darkened environment such that the only source of light is the screen, at-seat service during the break... The tickets were affordable : 5 / 25 /40, but the refreshments were a bit over-charged. Of, course only half compared to the peers in Chennai and Hyderabad :) A really great effort / investment by Reliance...

Am looking forward to watch my favourite movie in the second theatre, today!!! And, everytime i visit home, i'll try to visit those theatres atleast once, whatever the movie might be. Coz, nothing elates me better than a good movie experience, and that too, in my hometown :)
