It was a 9:30 AM show, so we entered the mall early. After checking the tickets at the main entrance the security allowed us to drive inside to the parking area.
The much sought after highest number of screens in a Chennai theater became the ideal place to watch the latest sensation by Rajni. On the third floor of the mall is the PVR sharing the floor along with the food court and the children's play area. Since it was quite early for the mall timing we were not allowed to roam around the third floor beyond the PVR area.
The lobby of PVR is aesthetically designed and laid out. Digital displays near the ticket counter are filled with advertisements. Food stalls inside PVR has a range of condiments at inconsiderable prices. Our movie was played at AUDI 04. Only at 9 AM we were allowed to enter the 4th screen, till then we had to admire the floor, pillars and take in the ambiance.
While entering AUDI 04, we were surprised to see huge space in front of the screen, the first row itself started much far away from the screen. Neatly maintained theater has comfortable seats for Rs.250 charged per person. Ample space between rows helped in easy navigation. Sound was out of the world experience and it was a treat to watch Rajni on the screen.
Coming to the movie - was a typical Thalaivar film but could have been much better. Music did not match up to Petta, its a let down as songs are not catchy except Kizhi. Though the movie fell below expectations it is still an experience for Rajni fans. Nivedha Thomas was very good. Nayanthara not doing a duet number in the film had to be appreciated. Yogibabu has done his part well. Fight at the metro station is refreshing. No punch dialogues is a miss.
Rajni at the age of 70 puts in too much efforts to entertain his fans is commendable. No one else can pull this through. If one watched Darbar, its only for Rajni.
