Saras India

I went for a movie today, the only one they showed around the timing I came was Despicable me 2 (Dumma mig 2) so I decided to see it. But before all this, I had some chocolate cravings and was running around like a crazy in all the foodshops to find Twix (have they stopped selling twix? No one I asked seemed to know what I was talking about). After I eventually found it in Landmark, I carefully hid one in the sidepocket in my bag, and the other one I wrapped in my stole, also this one kept in my bag. 

 

Reason for hiding it? Well, no eatables or drinks are allowed to be taken inside moviehalls in India. I was trying to beat their system! I was so looking forward to smile at me breaking the rules and eating my forbidden Twix! To my horror, the securitylady went through my bag inside out! She took out everything I had, makeup, socks, camera, stole, money, toothpicks, waterbottle, tasty nuts, toiletpaper.. I had to remove the battery from my camera, give her my waterbottle, tasty nuts, cheewing gums?! and my two Twix! Inside I was crying. And like the stubborn person I deep down inside am, I started arguing about the cheewing gums! I claimed they are not eatables, in a loud voice, took them back and put it back in my bag! I gave her an angry look and told her to take good care of my Twix! Poor securitylady.

 

Is it just me or has the moviehall security improved? As far as I can remember I have been able to smuggle some goods inside the moviehall before. Next time, I will put some Twix in my pants! Nothing makes me happier than breaking the "no eatables in the moviehall-rules"
