MUMBAI IS ALL SET TO GET A ROMANTIC DRIVE-IN THEATRE



It has been too long for us to have conventional picnics and fancy dinner dates. Each time we wonder about how we can make the next date as memorable as the last one. And we definitely envy the westerners for having so many amazing options when it comes to a movie date. 

A movie night under the night sky is something which should definitely be on our bucket list. And each time we ponder over when this will come true. Well, not anymore! We have a lot of reasons why we want to spend our lives in the city of dreams. The sea, the people, the food, and even the rush of local! This is what we admire about this city. And now, get ready to add one more reason to an already long list of “Why Mumbai?”!

If you currently shifted in a rental flat in Mumbai, or specifically Bandra, you will know that the new buzz in town is the open air theatre which will open right in the heart of the city at Maker Maxity in Bandra Kurla Complex. Planned to open in August 2017, this open air theatre will have your weekends set.

Go for a simple drive with your friends or lover, and end up watching your favorite movie under the open sky! This is what this open air theatre aims at. However, 90’s kids who have been staying in Mumbai will know that this is not the first time that a drive-in theatre is opening in the city. This concept has been previously attempted at Napean Sea Road and in BKC itself till it was pulled down in 2003.

Now, PVR is bringing back the trend with a lavish set-up and some fantastic amenities. It has a capacity of as many as 300 cars built across 75000 sq. meters and per car cost will be Rs. 1000. Apart from that, there are drinks and food, which one can expect to be on the expensive side but totally worth the experience. 

If you are someone who doesn’t wish to watch movie in this fashion, don’t you worry! There will also be a six-screen multiplex below the drive-in theatre with price ranging from Rs. 350 to Rs. 750. What’s more? Your movie date can be followed with a fancy dinner since the setup will also have a fine dining area with a capacity of 100 people.

With this drive-in theatre and multiplex, BKC which is a business hub by day will turn into an entertainment hotspot by night. You can experience the best of Mumbai at one place and enjoy fancy meals followed by a romantic movie date. 

Mumbai has given you one more reason to stay in one of the best parts of the city. Staying here will have your weekend plans sorted. Mumbaikars can’t wait for this drive-in theatre to open, so the ones, who recently shifted or are planning to re-locate to a rental flat in Bandra, can you?
