Six Degrees, the new branch at Sathyam Cinemas is one good thing, to enjoy. Priced at Rs.110 per ticket, it is damn good. On the contrary, that mayajaal crap charges Rs.150 for some "kuppai".
The theatre has seating capacity of just 180 seats. But inside, you will feel like it accomodates more. But its just 10 rows, 18 seats per row. 9 seats on each side.
Interiors :
By default the theatre is dark themed. The ceiling is pretty decent. There is no fancy chandeliers or lightings. But, they have placed LCD monitors on the walls and it displays a erupting lava kind of animation which is cool to watch. At first I thought it is some lava lamp. But I changed my mind, when I saw all 20+ monitors/TV display the same sequence. Brilliant and new idea.
Seating :
Whooooa! I love it. It is wide.. individual.. soft... comfortable and even the backrest is comforted with spring action. The legroom is simply good. Seating is six degrees is damn good. Better than Studio 5.
Under each seat, you can see a small light, helping you to seat properly in the dark. There is illuminated-etched-glass cubes placed on the ground, that clearly reads the row name and seat numbers. The steps are properly illuminated with light. But... those stupids, i mean the interior designers, for some reason placed short steps in between causing some people to slip or hit and fall down. Too bad! it spoils the entire experience.
Screen:
Wide and almost flat screen. I was wondering why they named it 6 degrees.Could be because of the way they project the moview. Yeah.. projection is slightly deviated. Blurred in the right side corners. Someone commented that the projector is setup in such a way that it deviates the projection to six degrees, reasoning the name of the theatre. I dont know, may be true.
Sound :
Excellent sound setup, unluckily the movie i watched, the dumb "Flight Plan" is not that good in Sound FX. So I am unable to provide a good report here. But noticing the few re-recordings in the movie, i guess the sound effects should be good. I wanna watch 2Fast 2Furious or The Italian Job in that theatre. Smile
Conclusion:
A very good theatre and a worth-paying-money experience, nagged by minor issues like improper footsteps and slightly-deviated projection. Hope they fix these issues soon.
