Ooo La La Wonder La
1. Went there with the team.
2. My second time, first being just within a week of its opening.
3. Totally impressed by the well maintained place, clean restrooms and well behaved staff.
4. Rides are thrilling and seem to be safe.
5. The water and laser show is a must watch.
6. They even have photos clicked while on the ride and you can purchase them later. Just like how they have in disney.
7. Great attention to detail
8. Food is ok, but very less choice on weekdays.
9. Value for money and you get a fun filled day!
10. Go for it :)

PVR Cinemas - A Raw Deal (once)
(changed the heading of the post upon reading from comments that it doesn't happen often. But it did happen with me, so am still gonna retain the post)Yet another crib session.
Just now got a forward from a friend that said about a plan to boycott all the theatres , malls and restaurants in Bangalore by the software guys for a month so as to teach them a lesson not to hike the prices for no reason.
Now this reminded me of something that I wanted to post a few weeks back and forgot. So doing it now.
After my last visit to
PVR, I swore not to go there again. Here's why:
I buy tickets for
Lage Raho Munnabhai late
nite show on a
sunday. Price - Rs.180/-. The ticket said the movie starts at 10pm. I was already running late, so I quickly gobbled up my
icecream (I got one more crib session on this icecream coming up) standing outside the entrance
(they wont let you take outside food inside the theatre) and manage to get in right at 10:05 pm so that I don't miss the start of the movie.
I wait and wait and wait for the movie to start, but all I see is commercials of some goddamn
underwears and toothpastes and colas. And the movie finally starts at 10:40 pm.
WTH?????
I didn't pay 180 bucks to these fellows to sit and watch commercials, I can do that right at home on TV!!!
First of all I am pissed with the unreasonable prices of the ticket. And to top it, they show me ads!!!!
In
Hyd, the ticket costs 60-80 bucks in a posh theatre
Prasads. And
PVR in
Hyd charges 100/-. Then why is it 180/- in Bangalore? Even if they have their own reasons....why the hell does the customer have to watch ads after paying so much?
Me not happy! Me not going there again. Me ain't letting that fella walk all over me!

Share a laugh
Got this one through a mail forward and thought of spreading the laughter around
Autoraj and Helpless Public
I coined the word
Autoraj, like
Gundaraj :)
So here's the story. I was riding to office at 10:30 am, a time when traffic is still dense but fairly smooth moving. Near
madivala, while I am on the left-most lane, I hear lot of honking suddenly. I turn my head right and see a funny / pathetic scene. Two autos going parallel to each other, the second one just at the end of the first one...get the picture? Now the second auto
wala had his leg placed on the first auto. And they both are trying to maintain that by driving slow. No,
it't not like one guy is pulling the other. They are just driving in tandem. Some fun stunt for them. The entire road ahead of them is free and there is a huge traffic block in the making behind them, cause the first auto guy occupied half of the middle lane and the second guy took over the first lane. Now how would 4 wheelers go ahead. They honk and honk and nothing pinches these two
ridiculous auto fellas.
Since I am on the last lane and on a 2 wheeler, I could go past. While I was riding, this thing was going on in my mind.
Come
christ college....what do i see????.... Two more autos in the same stunt. I can tell that they are not the previous auto guys. No kidding! Same day, same funny incident, second time. For a moment I thought, 'is it some kinda festival for auto guys that they do this on that day'. Well, my mind is pretty
wacky in imagination, so never mind. This time, their stunt was actually stopping me from moving ahead. So I went a bit near the second auto walla, honk once to get his attention, then move my hand like saying '
Wat's going on'... I can't talk from inside a helmet. This guy starts yelling at me in
kannada that I couldn't get anyways. But he did act like a
gunda. So I quietly took off from there.
Now tell me....WHAT CAN WE DO?
The so called traffic
rules and fines...are they anywhere applicable here? Are there any cops patrolling on the roads to keep a check on such stuff? Would taking the auto number and reporting to some police actually
yield any result? I guess NO.
Aaarggghhh.
I don't wanna get started on their tampered meters and their
whimsical charges. Will save it for some other post.
It's an
Autoraj baby!
