Dear constant travellerThank you for trying to prove me wrong, and for getting involved in the spelling error noticing process, despite being a Delhiite (or are you?).I do believe, however, that this has nothing to do with my feelings, if any, for Mr. Soofi, or for that matter, for you or anyone but myself. I like to read this blog, and I want me to be happier and better satisfied seeing people spell well. Not that spelling is rigid, or ever has been (cf Hoenigswald), as someone once wrote. As for who I think I am, I don't need to - I know who I am. I should be happy to have a lifesize mirror delivered to your address, or arrange a photo session for you, should you be interested in knowing who you are. Better still, stop and think a bit. Nothing personal, of course. Enjoy the chaat, mate.

Dear Anonymous,I agree with you the issues you have raised regarding PVR Saket or Anupam as its commonly called. Why don't you try any of the halls under PVR in C.P. or even 3 C's in L.P.N. is not bad!

Dear anonymous, i think its highly rude of you to keep going on and on about the spelling error! Mr. soofi has thanked you for that. plus what is this with'Not that many in Delhi would notice or bother'? i mean who do you think u are, again!

Dear Mr. SoofiThank you for having corrected it so promptly. Though I must say you would certainly benefit from the use of Spellcheck and Grammarcheck. One finds this blog interesting enough, but these errors are irritating, to say the least. Not that many in Delhi would notice or bother, but then that’s the whole point of the Internet, isn’t it?

For Heaven’s own sake, it’s Satyam, not Saytam! And I did think the seats a bit odd too, but then I am tall enough to handle that. Besides, there is the Skybox option for many movies on there, which is like first class air travel. (At 400 a seat, the fare is too.) But then where else are there footstools to cater to those stinking Delhi feet? And if you know what it’s like to drive from GK to Saket to get to PVR, thanks to the HCBS (whatever that may one day turn out to be), then you’ll rejoice with me. I’ve seen four films at the new Satyam so far, got my car buggered by a Sardar Scorpio outside, got lost in the multi’lavel’ carpark, had the stale popcorn and flavour ridden giant pepsi, but I believe I still will go to it. Skybox, of course.

My vote goes to PVR. Never been to Satyam. But yeah I watched Dil Se long time back in satyam at patel nagar. Will not go to the one in Nehru Place though after reading all these horror stories.

tell me about the new satyam! i watched ‘Dharm’ there (satyam being the only hall listed in the paper running this film). that we were seated in the 5th row from the front didn’t help matters. the non-reclining seats were irritating me no end. thankfully i missed the luxury of tasting the amazing popcorn you tried. so much for the ‘when will the new satyam open’ that went on for months. i’m just plain disappointed!
