Mysore matinee

I stumbled upon the collection of my tickets from some of the movies that i watched during engineering college. Looks like Srinagaraja was my favorite hangout :P Now ask me to go there and i will give a shudder and refuse.

Woodlands, Sterling, Srinagaraja, Rajkamal used to be the places to go to after bunking a class. Many times, we'd spot people from other branches waiting in the same queue. The pleasure of grabbing a ticket from the counter after a long wait is something you won't get when you book it online. At 45 rupees, any movie was paisa vasool! Now if i see a 45 rupees ticket, i can only say, those were the days. Makes me feel really old! :(

    Can't preserve the multiplex tickets these days. The print on them wears off!

  6. It should be "Many times/Many a time", not "Many a times". I just have to point it out,don't I? Can't help it. It's a compulsion.
