De-Multiplexed..

I was running out of reasons…why we were not watching this movie ‘Jane tu..’ It was getting more anf more intense..ugly and finally it was the limit. I was dragged out of my comforts and sent straight to the nearest theater .. liberty (remember the blasts in delhi??) All congested roads of delhi wer swallowing my petite santro. I I was out now in the open..all the dumpster gunda types were assembled to whistle and oggle at the new katrina kaif poster.

I was in ..their was no queue..was there a balcony …( imean wid places like these u just never know). Yes glad there was. Show timings were nowhere to be found.

“Excuse me can u pla tell me the show timings”

The man behind the safe glass was a bearded middle aged man who was not very happy with my question.

“have you never been to a movie you…?. 4 shows…get it. 12,3,6and 9..” pointed at the dilapidated LCD display .

“Oh..ya..the bomb..I am sorry”

“Where….where……!!”

“Nothing just…never mind!! so …shows…mmmmmm 6 pm 4 seats please and how much would it be??”

“Are you new to this place…?? Oh I see…you are the multiplex crowd. You with your stupid english better leav my theater or else i will i will……….”

“Excuse me.”

“You idiot…english again…what the hell you dumb ass dont you get what i say.. just pay me fetch tickets and never let me set my eyes on your face…you..”

“You knw wht..just gimme some the tickets..and i will be going..I detest your stupid theater with the gunda raj going all over… your stupid single screen and chairs with no leg room is stupid..you kno that?”

“Have a nice day..” he said..out of i dont know…his compulsive obligations I suppose or may be he was too idle to have not picked up a verbal.

“The poor guy doesnt even knwo the show timings…..ha ha ha..the multiplex going crowd…..dnt come here….go and ave theose 50 buck popcorns in stupid plexes where you all packed in a cage like chickens to be beheaded ha ha ha ha ..”

I was in for the movie now…4 hours since the war of the words.

It started of nice…and then I went to pee. when I came back..i missed nothin..they were still tryin to convince each other. Then i went to the coffee and when I returned they were still in clubs dancin and all.

There were times when I wanted it to forward it….but the narrative ws good..actors were well cast and ya music was hummable except for one song which gave me a “nothins gonna change ma love ” feeling. Ending was a sheer deperation to serve some utter nonsense. Abbas tyrewala delivers these nonsense 15 minutes of brainless hindi masal better than david dhawan which totally ruins the movie. It builds up all the magic and then bursts it like..na na na na na..we were all joking. dnt kno the name but some brother…was good with acting. Acting was good…I mean…it was a decent movie gone way out of your hand.
