...

couldn't really think of a title. before whenever i used to write a post, i think so hard to get a title.. even a simple mail for that matter. and few years back neo had taught me of this simple yet fascinating idea of using dots.

over the week i had spent quite a lot of time traveling in and around the Singara Chennai. 3 things i could figure out about this horribly hot place:
1. the only place where people ask couples to go spend romantic times in temples
2. lovers hardly find places to go around in the city particularly considering the sun@work part.
3. the places that should be marked as 'okay' types are being hyped like anything! crowd still sleeping!?

here goes some explanation for the 3rd point. not knowing how to kill time we thought of heading to mayajaal on an as usual hot sunny day! that was the first time i watched a movie at mayajaal. thinking of the hype it has and through word of mouth we burnt 240 bucks and picked up ayan tickets, only after entering i realized how heavily people are being cheated out there! the seats are the worst kind i have ever seen in life. PVR cinemas has reduced regional language movie tickets to 120 bucks on weekdays. i couldn't stop wondering on the versus part!
Last time when I visited Satyam I kept cribbing about the seating comparing it with the PVR, but now I say Satyam does a great job there, no doubt!

We ventured at the Inox box office someday, how could a place that has set such high standards in the movie world be modeled in such a stupid manner.. unbelievable! the entry to the movie hall, box office + exit to box office is all through the same lane. On top of that some 3-4 people stand at the same entry point adding to the already existing crowd 'with no uniforms' and keep shouting on people coming. Ridiculous!
city centre definitely requires a huge amount of redesigning. So much of space is wasted, I still doubt if the construction is yet to be completed. V and Y went on applying their IIM concepts at every other thing we encountered in this place.

With all this plus half a week stay at home turned to be a great revitalizer to the slumber mind.

Iniya thamizh puthandu nalvaazhthukkal!
