PVR Cinemas — Unnecessary high prices for food items and outside eatables not allowed

Address:

Thane, Maharashtra, 401105

Saw movie today at Mira Road Cinemax. Was carrying chips packet and cold drink bottle with us for my daughter. The security asked us to leave these items with them only. In theatre, during the break, we had to buy the expensive Popcorn available in the theatre as our food items were taken by security. The cost of movie ticket was Rs.190 per person and the Popcorn cost was Rs.240 (which should not cost more than 40-50 Rs. outside).
This practice of not allowing outside eatables combined with exorbitant high prices of food items in theatres is anti-customer and monopolistic. Customers should be given options to carry outside food items or in-theatre products should be priced reasonably.
The government and theatre owners should look into this.
On one side you cry about piracy, and on other side, you are looting customers through such rules and practices. Why should a customer come and pay unnecessarily high prices? Think and respond.
