For some weired reason, Addon domains were not working properly and then relative urls.  I had to spent almost 2 hours on chat with HM online chat support ( which I found relatively very slow) to get this up.

Anyways, i am happy that now its up and running.

I saw a possibility of something similar when I visited Talkie Town yesterday at Hyderabad and amazed how government can allow operation of such activities which can risks lifes of 1000s of people.

I went to watch ‘Welcome’ one of the latest hindi flick in Krishna-Narshima screens of talkie town in Miyapur yesterday. To my surpise exit route for all the people coming out of the hall was blocked with lots of contruction material including iron structures, mound of sand (or something similar). Add to that, there was some water leakage happening which made the complete route pretty slippery.

It was just not the route, i found that hall itself is not yet ready( or atleast its management) to take on to the challenges of converting an old theatre into a cinemaplex. I found lots of people complaining about mosquitos inside the hall, insufficient number of toilets, cleaniness of toilets, mall functioning of ACs and what not.

I hope someone will take immediate action to rectify these serious flaws which are definitely big risk to all talkie town movie goers.

What I dont like…or rather I would say I wish I had a feature in TataSky which allowed me to set reminders not only via the indexed program list, but also when there is some commercial going on for a movie or a soap I wish to watch.

To explain it a bit further, say I am watching a channel on which they are broadcasting an advertisement about a forthcoming movie next week at 8pm. So if I wish to watch this movie, either I should rely on very limited and short memory OR I should go to program list, browse through it so that i can reach that particular timeslot and set reminder (which is just soooo many clicks/presses if this movie is scheduled after a week).

There should be single button click option right there which should allow me to set reminder than and there for this telecast. Right there!

Technically, I think this should be quite possible. What TataSky needs to do probably is to get broadcasters like Sony or Star to tag there advertisement pertaining to forthcoming telecast. Just catch these tags and display an option for user to click ‘red’ button to set reminder.

Simple isnt?
