Did You Notice There Are No ‘I’ Row Seats In PVR Theaters? Here’s The Reason Why

We all love watching movies on the big screen. Being regular theatergoers, we all find ourselves checking out the latest releases every Friday (or a Wednesday, if that’s what you fancy) and booking the best seats available as soon as possible, if we find a movie that is a ‘can’t-be-missed’ kind of a watch.

Today, when we decided to book a few tickets for Baar Baar Dekho (because why not!), we suddenly came across something that was right under our noses but we just never paid enough attention.

There is never a Row “I” in the PVR theaters. Rows always go from H to J. 

We have assembled a few screenshots of different theaters for your perusal just in case you were wondering.

We did a quick scan through a lot of PVR theaters seating charts at different timings and turns out, it does indeed hold true for all of them.

So, the question remains — Why is there no “I” row in the theaters?

When ScoopWhoop tried to get in touch with one of the PVR officials, here’s what he had to say. 

“Simply, [the letter] I looks like a [number] one to people.”

They said, while also pointing out that it isn’t just row “I” that is missing but also, row “O”. The obvious reason for this was because [letter] “O” resembles the [number] 0, which ends up creating a lot of confusion amongst the ushers and audience members.

Who knew so much thought goes into little details like these.
