A ride down the top notch theaters of chennai

The IT boom has made weekend getaways popular in Chennai.People are busy either shopping, or watching movie in a cozy theater during the weekends. If you are planning to visit your friend in Chennai on a Saturday, mind you, don't show up unannouncedly to his or her place.Your impromptu visit could actually make him or her miss their weekend outing, which is very sacrosanct.Weekend outing has become popular even among the middle class population in Chennai. The theater complex owners have thoroughly used this trend to their advantage.Most of these complexes are also shopping malls and have food courts, games etc in them.On the other hand, there are people who go for window shopping to these malls but the theaters are still chart toppers.

People have started looking for a class when they visit a theater.The theater owners have also well understood the demands of the movie goers and have introduced heights of sophistication in their theaters. Though there are many renowned theaters in chennai , leading the pack are Satyam ,INOX and Swarnashakti abirammi. Among these INOX and Swarnashakti abirammi are part of shopping malls.Abirrammi only recently joined this bandwagon with its introduction of Swarnashakti abirammi, which provides a matchless class to compete with Sathyam and INOX. The best part of the abirammi complex is the parking arrangement.The parking space is alloted in the fourth floor of the complex. You simply step your car into an elevator,it takes you to the terrace.It work just like the normal elevators that we use, but the difference here is that it takes you along with your car and you can park it in the terrace. Against this, the city center, where the INOX is , has an undergorund car parking set up.A drive to the underground parking lot was like a pleasant journey by itself. Abirrammi mall followed by the City center tops the chart , when it comes to the parking arrangement.But sathyam provides free parking( from monday to saturady 5 pm to 2 am and sunaday 8am to 2 am) within its complex and also it has special parking annexes at the "T" junction of Pattulous road and White's road.

As for as seating arrangement goes, again Swarnashakti abirrammi provides a very comfortable seating to the viewers. With just the press of a button, the seat extends to provide you with ample space for stretching your legs forward and leaning back .You can watch the screen as if you watch lying in a sofa at the comfort of your home. This seating arrangement is available only for poeple who choose to buy 120 rupees tickets, which is also the highest ticket price in INOX and Sathyam.Though Shree in Sathyam complex provides a sofa to ensure comfortable seating, the seating arrangement in Swarnashakti abirammi lives up to its name. But Sathyam provides its online customers with an option to choose their seats . They can have a say over the row of their seats. Sathyam and INOX also maintains a posh look and provides a very high index of cleanliness.But the theater authorities of Swarnashakti abirammi should pay more attention to their standard of cleanliness. Ofcourse,all the three theaters allow you to book your tickets online or over phone. Sathyam also has a unique prepaid card called fuel, which you can use to book tickets and snack online. Swarnashakti abirrammi and sathyam also allow you to order your snack beforehand and get it served right at your seats. Swarnashakti abirammi have waiter-on-call service for food and beverages.

Moreover, people also prefer to complete the movie going with a lunch , snack or a dinner. Abirammi mall and City center have exclusive food courts. Sathyam has also recently introduced its eatery called ecstacy.But the downside is there is a dearth of choice of food that are available over there. As i said earlier, if people are looking to combine shopping and movie going, then INOX , which is located in City center and Swarnashakti abirrammi, which is part of the abirammi mega mall fit their bill. On the other hand, Sathyam provides a unique movie watching experience. The sound effects are of very high quality in Sathyam. Similarly ,Abirammi mall also have other theatres apart from Swarna Shakti abirammi within its complex to serve all classes of people. So you name it and we have it is what seems to be the business mantra of these theaters.Isn's it appropriate to give them a five star status and label them as the five star theatres in chennai.
