Me and some of my friends had a plan to watch a Movie named "Omkara" night show. I was responsible to book the tickets. I came to the office, to check the availability of tickets opened www.pvrcinemas.com and got a message : This page has been blocked by the administrator. (Murphy No 1 )
I knew how fast the tickets get booked at PVR. So I decided to go to the theatre itself and book the tickets. I sat in an Auto. As as the Auto was about to start, I realised that I had just 10 rs in my pocket. ( Minimum fare for an auto in Bangalore is 12 Rs. ) I clearly told the Auto driver, that I had no money and requested him to stop at the ATM right ahead. As he approached the ATM. I saw the shutter of the ATM was down. Machine refilling was in progress. (Murphy No 2 )
I knew one more ATM on the road to PVR. I told the Auto driver to take me to the second ATM. When we reached, there, I went frantic. This ATM was also closed for Money refilling. ( Big Murphy No 3 )
Now I knew there was not a single ATM till PVR and ahead. With no hopes, I sat in the Auto. and told him, ' Plan cancel !! Take me to any ATM first. Then PVR. '
He too agreed. Took me to some ATM in Koramangala. I withdrew plenty of money. Gave the Auto driver his share and hurried back to PVR. There was a queue for tickets at the counter. But I was smarter :-) I thought of booking tickets using the machine installed there. All I had to do was, select the show and timing, select the number of tickets I wanted and swipe my credit card. I started my transaction and found that all the tickets for the show were sold out !!!
( Murphy No. 4 ) I cursed myself. I had come all the way to book tickets and I didn't wanted to go empty handed. So I booked tickets for the next day 10 pm show and came back. When I was back at my desk, one of my friend messaged me," I guess it will rain today" . The first thing that came to my mind was,
'Murphy cannot be wrong. It will surely rain tomorrow night at 9:30 and will make it difficult for me to reach pvr on time."
When it comes to watching a movie, I was already a victim of Murphy's Laws. This was the secong time, Click here to read my 1st time murphy.
This happened on 1st of Janauary. What a way to start a new year.
