AMALL… THE MOVIE – Part – 1 –

You people must be wondering what AMALL stands for… Keep waiting for a little bit longer, you will know the expansion. So now let me give you a hint of what you will be reading in coming paragraphs. This blog is about people from college bunking the class to see a junkie movie. Yes after a week long discussion on which movie to watch, it was finally decided that around 25 people from our class would be going to this so called movie AMALL. Everyone were wondering would we get tickets for this movie.. etc etc ( The usual worries ) and finally decided that all people would be going to theatre a clear one hour prior to the start of the movie and take chance of buying the tickets. Oh btw, we had all decided to go to a morning show. So a clear one hour prior to movie start means we had to be at theatre by 10.

So finally I arrived at the theatre at 10 past 10 to see only 3 of my classmates on time. The ticket counters were empty and there was no hurry to buy the tickets. It was really shocking to see such an empty theatre especially when the movie got released just a week ago. This was probably a hint on what followed next, but unfortunately nobody seemed to get that hint. So we decided to buy tickets once everyone arrives. So now here was a tricky situation, I was alone, and the 3 classmates who had arrived were girls. And by the past history our class girls do not come close to having any girly characteristics. They were commonly termed as “Unruly girls”. Hence the constant fear was always there before talking to them. Being a daring guy, I had to talk to them somehow. So I slowly approached them, they were having some private giggling conversation. Ignoring their giggles, I went and said “Hi, so how long have u all been here?”. One of them replied “15mins. So u came now?”. (What a dumb question. Should I say “No I am still on my way”) instead replied “Eh… Yeaaaah!!!”… At this time, one of my close friend arrived. First time I was very pleased to see him at right time. Then he just said his formal “namaskara” and then we both proceeded to talk on our games stuff. Soon one by one, all 24 people had arrived and we were waiting for one guy (Who was known for his untimely appearance…). One of us called him and as usual we got a reply saying he will be reaching in 5more mins. So we asked him to buy his won ticket and enter cinema hall. We 24 bought the tickets and went into theatre. We saw few people here and there but by large ours was the biggest group in whole theatre. This was a good license for us to scream and shout whatever we want since it would not disturb anyone ignoring the empty chairs.

The big screen lit up with a few ads followed by 3 trailers. The trailers were probably the best part for next 3 hrs, only we dint realize it at this point of time. Loud cheers started from the crowd (Well… WE WERE THE CROWD)… So finally the movie AMALL began…
