15.
OUTSIDE
The place is completely empty now. Everybody’s inside. Faint
sounds of the movie wafts out.
Time flies and the ambience gets spooky.
INSIDE
The film playing is harshly interrupted -- and a different
film starts rolling. The ‘bit’ everyone was waiting for.
The hall erupts for a brief moment.
It’s a full-figured, out-of-shape Mallu ‘aunty’ getting ready
to take a bath.
The hall quickly goes silent and gets immersed in the
activity on the screen.
The aunty continues to bathe herself with generous amounts of
water from the bucket, while still clothed of course. In a
stunning surprise, another girl joins the bath.
An audible gasp goes through the theatre. All the three
friends are watching the ongoings with their mouths open in
varying degrees.
The spell is finally broken when the ‘Interval’ card comes on
the screen.

Highlight hai!
BITTU
That’s possibly the best bit ever!
VICKY
Truly an achievement in cinematic
history!
CONCESSION STAND
The three boys are standing at the over-crowded concession
stand. Everybody is clamouring for the stale food that’s
being sold like hot cakes.
A mini riot is almost breaking out over who needs to be
serviced first.
Suddenly Jana notices.
JANA
Vicky! Your dad!
VICKY
What!
(instinctively hides)
Where? Where?
