Fun Cinemas — Unreasonable rates

Address:

Bangalore, Karnataka

Booked tickets online to watch X-Men with family at Fun Cinemas, Cunningham Road, Bangalore. Although the ticket price I thought was reasonable by Bangalore standards at Rs.110/-, in addition to the ticket rate there was an online booking rate. Don't understand why as actually the customer is saving them operational costs by booking online and hence should be same as counter rate or cheaper to book online. Even life / health insurance policies are much cheaper when bought online. It was a 3D movie and they charged Rs.50 refundable deposit for the 3D glasses. I can understand this, but what I could not digest was the fact that they were charging an additional Rs.30/- towards 'Service Charges' on 3D glasses. This is nothing but overcharging for no additional value especially when the quality of glasses are very poor and you don't have the choice of trying to select a good one as they are all badly maintained. Finally, bought some popcorn and fountain Pepsi. Was shocked to find out the Pepsi was Rs.110 for a 650 ml cup and pop corn Rs.130/-. Defies logic. Even a 5 star hotel does not charge as much. So for a family of four it works out to quite a fortune. Isn't there any way to control this unregulated and unfair pricing?
