Your budget needs to be a minimum of around Rs.600 excluding your transportation cost. You can reach this place using the public bus facility or on own transport.
Me and my friend went to the film city on Oct 4 2008. We had a pretty enjoyable ride to the place since the road is pretty well maintained (It’s a rarity to find well maintained roads in Bangalore). We reached there around 11.30 and then started clicking some photos of the entrance of the film city. Going towards the ticket counter to get an entrance for ourselves, we were approached by some helpers who gave us a brief description on what is where and how much would it cost. The best part of the film city is that it’s not a necessity to visit all the parts of the place. If wanted we could go to which ever parts we wanted and pay on the spot for the entrance. We saved up some cash there since we didn’t go for the Dino World, Water Park and the Kids play area. Yea sure, you’d get a discounted entrance if you’d buy a ticket for Rs.699 for everything in the place.
We both bought the entrance ticket for Rs.50 each and then a ticket for our camera which costed us Rs.100. Once entering we passed by a huge street with awesome architectural designs and this street was called the MAIN STREET.
Our next stop was the mirror maze. This is amazing maze, which will entertain you. Once you enter and walk a few meters you’ll bang into a mirror which you would’nt know unless your hands stretched out straight. And the main aim of going into the maze is to get out of it which is also the biggest problem as the whole place look the same. So I guess you understand what I mean. It’s pretty small but we were almost stuck for about half an hour and unknowingly made it back to the entrance more than twice.
After exiting the Maze, we were dizzy, still in the same world as the maze and made our way to our ticket counter were we bought ourselves a ticket for the Louis Tussad’s Musuem and Mini Golf which cost us Rs.50 each.
Our next stop was the Louis Tussad’s Wax Museum. The museum had a variety of personalities from different part of the continents like there was Mahatma Gandhi, Angelina Jolie, Elvis, Nelson Mandela, Walt Disney and many other famous personalities. There were more than we’d expected so it took quite sometime to go through the whole place.
After exiting the museum, we headed towards the mini golf. The instructor gave a bit of a description of how it works and how we should approach it after which we were on the course. The course was awesome fun since it was located in a somewhat up and down region, so most of the time we hit the ball, it mostly came back down and some of the hole’s were located near fountains and Ashwin made it in there twice. So we had a good laugh while playing the whole course which was a 18 hole course.
Our next stop was the 4 Dimensional Movie. We both were animation students and our main reason to see the film was to find out how the 4 dimension worked. It was costly (Rs.100) but the film was very neat and nice. It really entertained us along with the common audience. I won’t break the suspense and tell you what the 4th dimension. It is for you to find out. Coming out, we looked around the arcade games. Speaking about these games, their screens are awesomely huge and if you enjoy arcade games, you’ll thrive in this condition.
After a look at these games, we headed of to the food court. The food court has a lot of variety, but the major problem here is that, the food isn’t good and another problem is that you can’t sneak in outside food in. They got tight security at the entrance. Once the eating was over, we walked around the place, looking at some dance competition and then singing and other of the attraction like caricature. After which we headed to the exit and then back home.
Over all I would say that the place is fun to be and you’ll enjoy the whole trip for sure. Unfortunate for us that we didn’t catch the Ripley’s attraction since it was closed, but still enjoyed the trip a lot.
