Movies and snacking go hand in hand, but the high prices of snacks and beverages at the theatre upsets people. Recently, a man who went to see Akshay Kumar’s OMG 2 at the cinema found a clever way to sneak his own food in. His ingenious hack quickly went viral online, and many movie-goers expressed their desire to try it for themselves. The video even earned a response from Swiggy Instamart.
“I call it the genius hack,” wrote Alfesh Shaikh while sharing a video on Instagram. The video opens to show Shaikh sitting at a table inside a food court. In front of him are two packets of chips, a bottle of cold drink and wraps. He then begins to assemble all of these items into a shoe box. To make sure the box stays sealed, he tapes it up, and the video shows him walking into the theatre with his snack box.
