ABSTRACT
Our project basically manages the ticket booking process of a
multiplex, providing an interface to the user to book movie tickets in
a more easy way. At the front end we have used PHP and at the
back end My SQL server. The project proceeds through a sequence
of well-designed forms provided with validations to ensure
consistency, reliability and most importantly correctness of

INTRODUCTION
1.1 OBJECTIVES
Cinema-going is one of the most popular out-of-home cultural activities, affecting a serious of social, economic and cultural phenomena in modern societies. Cinemas are considered to be an integral part of cities and they contribute to the definition of a local geography and identity. They also contribute to the preservation of the collective memory, since they constitute a significant social and cultural practice linked to a specific place, which acts as a common reference or landmark for many individuals.
Through this project we present a comprehensive solution for ticket booking in multiplexes. Theater management system, an online ticket selling software that is easy to understand, easy to use and offers the simplicity of fast point-and-click service to the customers.
This powerful software program is specifically designed for theater owners, to sell tickets online. This intuitive visual interface makes day-to-day aspects of selling, exchanging, refunding, and reporting fast and easy for both the user and administrators. Theater management controls all back-end functionalities like, movie details, ticket rate and show time, customer information and sales history saved in a database, etc. Theater admin manages the report details like counter wise report, daily, weekly, monthly report and movie report etc.

1.2 LIMITATIONS
Our project has the following limitations:-
- In this system the customer will not select seat number. The authorized people in this process will be the employee who works at the cinema.
- In this system the customer can book the tickets only for the present day. Advanced booking for the upcoming movies (2 or 3 months before the movie is released) is not included but can be included later.
- Also, a printing system will not be in this project. In future, a ticket printing system can be integrated.
- The customers who have booked the tickets must reach the multiplex 30 minutes prior to the show time or else ticket will get cancelled.

Gurgaon, which is the fastest growing suburb in India. By attracting a record number of urban middle & upper income consumers to the complex, major national & international brands - have opened their outlets in the multiplexes, making KVR the destination for complete family entertainment.
Situation
Faced with an increasing number of customers standing in long queues outside their theatres, KVR faced the challenge of providing "Customer Delight". Customers desperately wanted a easy way of ordering and paying for their tickets without the delays and inconvenience of standing in long queues.KVR needed a mechanism to administer their loyalty program "The KVR Movie Club", as well as provide for other promotional and membership services to help partners maximize their presence at the multiplexes. KVR Cinemas had introduced phone booking but it was not to prove viable, as customers were often "no-shows", leading to un-sold seats. This affected business profits.
Solution
1. Movie Ticket Booking over the Internet
In response to the KVR Cinemas requirements, we proposed an Ebusiness solution using Microsoft Platform which would enable movie goers to book their tickets electronically over the Internet from the comfort of their office or home. With the advent of the modern age, the typical user didn't have enough time to stand in line outside the theaters. The online solution allows users to select their

shows, book and pay for their tickets. This guarantees them a ticket even before they arrive at the cinema hall.
2. Secure electronic booking through bank payment gateway
Customers were provided with a convenient option of booking tickets through the Internet via a secure channel using Verisign SSL (Secure Socket Layer) and for the first-time the customers experienced the advantages of an electronic ordering system. This feature enabled customers to get confirmed tickets online from the web site by making payment using their credit card or debit cards. Trisoft integrated the online transaction seamlessly with the bank Payment Gateway Server.

to more, and repeat customers and shorter queues.
Access to information and other movie-related promotional news through the newsletters.
Increased Operational Efficiency through painless transaction reconciliation at the month end.
Online Brand extension by projecting a tech-savvy image, and appealing to Generation Y consumers who spend a lot of time browsing the Internet.
The Club Class memberships through the portal have built successful and lasting relationships with customers who are provided with special services like contests, loyalty points and redemption against exciting gifts, home delivery of tickets at a nominal cost, online account maintenance and more.
2.2 Proposed System
We propose a system which is more reliable, entertaining and easy than the present system. Our solution targets those users who do not have spare time to stand in queue for booking tickets. We propose an easy way of ordering and paying for the tickets without any delays and inconvenience. The people who book tickets are assured of a ticket before going to the theater without their physical presence. Customers who book tickets will receive an instant message (m-ticket) in

their mobile phone. By splashing this m-ticket at the counter of multiplex, the customer can get the physical ticket. The staff at the multiplex no longer needs complicated manual ticket availability and tracking mechanisms for issuing tickets. The ticket information is stored securely in a database which can be accessed any time for verification.
