Anyone went to see Dune 2?

I'm thinking whether to go or not cause I wanna see it on the big screen but the picture quality in bioscope is atrocious. I went to see Napolean and the screen brightness is so low, it was frustrating. Has anyone else in Durgapur seen the movie yet? Please let me know about your experience.

I am a bit older guy. I have ben transferred to Durgapur last year. I have made sort of an acquaintance here from social media. She is a matured lady living in Benchity, has a business selling clothes online, I guess. I want to take her out on a date btu after that I woudl liek to go to a place where we can get some amount of privacy.
Is there any such place in or around Drugapur ?? I am asking for limited privacy, I am hoping we will be hugging or kissing at the most.
I have heard KMP park is a good place. Is it really ?? Are there any other locations ?

Durgapur is underrated af

My recent trip to West Bengal which covered Darjeeling durgapur and Kolkata..i noticed that if given a proper attention and robust infrastructure..Durgapur can be mile ahead of Kolkata.. because the industry there are so many good industries .( I mean all the major Industries I'm not talking about companies).. I am talking about Industries all the major Industries are in durgapur and I am personally from Gujarat and I can say one thing very confidently that durgapur is a city like Gujarat only where industrial growth are on peak high..

Kolkata was also very good..I mean some of the people where I met were nic.. but you know when you compare Kolkata with cities like Bombay Delhi then my state cities like Ahmedabad Rajkot Baroda Surat...Kolkata still lags behind..I mean it doesn't compete with this city because because infrastructure is not only bad compared to other cities but the city management also is not at par and moreover all the big companies I didn't find in Kolkata.. which it should be what is the downfall of it??

If I would have been given a chance to establish a business in West Bengal and I would definitely choose durgapur because of the people and the culture of business there..

Are there too many non bengalis in Durgapur? Has the non bengali population grown too fast in recent years?

Sorry of this sounds racist but i genuinely curious. I do not remember hearing so much hindi in durgapur even 5 years back. I have been in durgapur for almost 35 year and surprised by the surge of non bengalis.

Durgapur is tier 2 city. Why are they coming here? What jobs are they working? I do not really see a growing economy except maybe some real estate work.

Wondering the groups thoughts are.

Wedding resort/venue in or near Durgapur

Any suggestions on good wedding venues in or near (~2hrs road journey) Durgapur? The wedding venue should have rooms as well. Resorts are preferred

I could find few venues like the wedding bells and wedlock green in Dhanbad.

Budget is flexible.

ANY FILM MAKING ENTHUSIAST IN THIS SUB GUYS?

Hey actually I am interested in film and video making (be it writing, shooting or editing) from a long time now(3-4 years), but as you know it's a collaborative thing and where I live I don't know much guys into it, so couldn't really engage in film making.

So I was thinking if there are people in Durgapur(close distance really helps) who are passionate in film making but aren't getting much like minded people, if joined together to form a team (like a band in music u know) then it's be super awesome. Great leisure time and might also get monitised.
