Finally my travel shoes are out, probably for the first time
in this year, and the reason is an all-paid-trip-from-company to Adlabs
Imagaica. J
After a long time, my team could finally find sitting in a
restaurant or movie hall not worth enough for a team event, so this outing. Surprisingly,
it was an “On Time” start for us (a delay of 30 minutes in no delay by Indian
standards). In the 3 hour long journey to the destination, I got a chance to
unearth a hidden talent in me. I’m a not that bad “damshiras” actor, that I always thought of me being.
As I first saw the park from a distance, I said “Bass itna sa”. But sooner it got bigger
and bigger. By the time we entered had grown big enough to think if we can
cover it all in a day. I grabbed a map and followed my toughest-first algorithm
(gabru jawan, you see J) and headed towards
the pendulum. My turn came, and it started rolling. Initially, things were
under control. I could wave to my buddies down and even pose for some clickers.
But as soon as it shot above π radian and almost touched 95-100 degrees, I
shall confess, I was not enjoying. I was not seeing, but only had my eyes open.
Whatever was there in front was only to watch.
Watching the sky almost parallel to it form some 100 feet closer
to what it actually is, and suddenly finding that your seat is not there where
it should be. And within next 2 seconds watching those moving creeper (human
they call on earth), from a 100 feet height and suddenly falling freely on them
is an experience hard to pen down. After
two full swings it cooled down and I came out, alive.
The next was roller coaster (Gold Rush) and I was exactly
the same as a roller coaster should be. It was then followed by a Dare Drop (free fall shoot), which makes you taste zero gravity. Having done the toughest first,
next all were looking far too easy now.
Mr. India, was yet another interesting concept well weaved with
4-D technology. You will be actually flying , going down in the valley, hitting
the boulder as they happen in the movie. Salimgarh Fort (haunted House), Warth
of God were also entertaining and involving. Dark Space (roller coaster) was
the best one among the indoors. You can feel the speed and those full circle whirls
made it a compulsory redo (I did that thrice).
If that entire thrill and heart stoppers were what you think
was there to offer, wait. I for India gave me the best visual experience ever. Having
seen most of my India form a bird eye view is a second-to-none experience to
me. I shall now regret a less for not being a pilot, cause what I witnessed
there was something best aviators also don’t get to. All that waiting in the
queue is worth for the show.
Summing up, I can say, it is worth a visit. It is something
one-of -its-kind in India and by all means at par to international standards.
It has something to offer to every kind of visitors, even for those who travel
for a click for Facebook, and endless likes and comments thereafter. The
concepts and idea are super awesome indigenously adapted to iconic Indian form
of storytelling. The audio-video effects will surely transform you to their
world and make to part of it. Thrill rides will surely give you a free ECG
test. J
All you I-can’t-do-it there, you might not like pushing yourselves
beyond your thresholds, but when I see 6th standard students
enjoying it, coming out only to say “I’ll do that again.”, I’m sure should also
try it once.
I enjoyed it to the most. Fullto Paisa Vasool

to Sneha Khandwalkar, for composing the music of Womeniya from Gangs of Wasseypur, which we rapped with
almost all weird combinations of songs possible.
