A devoted band of movie lovers catch the first show every Friday. 'It can't be,' exclaimed some of them in shocked voices, when we told them about next week's drought. Others say life will find a way

'So irritating'
Sapna Nair (25), medical health professional
I like to watch movies and that's why I prefer the first day, first shows. I recently watched Fast & Furious. It's so irritating that no films will be screened. I will miss out on so many good ones.

'DVD sales will increase'
Darius Mistry (23), copywriter
If it's something that I really want to watch, I catch the first day first show. Recently I saw Watchmen and Valkyrie. No movie releases for a month is going to affect things. DVD sales will slightly increase, a comfortable amount of people will download and some could be really bad quality camera downloads recorded in the theater from when the movie was playing. It's a bad, money-grabbing situation. I do go to multiplexes more often than single screens because they show the movies I want to watch. This is going to affect me because I need movies; it's a daily routine to watch them.
