  • Once the user selects the movie, the portal should display the cinemas running that movie and the available shows.
  • User should be able to select the show at a particular theatre & book the tickets (third party payment support).
  • Send a copy of tickets via SMS notification or Email or WhatsApp.
  • Movies suggestions when login (ML to get recommendation engine like Netflix), real-time notifications to the user about new movie releases & other stuff.
  • The portal should display the seating arrangement of the cinema hall to the user.
  • User should be able to select multiple seats according to their choice.
  • Users should be able to hold the seats for 5-10 minutes before he/she finalized the payment.
  • The portal should serve the tickets in First In First Out manner
