Was watching movie in Sathyam and half of the cinema hall ran away.Few people felt it , others ran after hearing it.We stayed put and finished the movie Earthquake won't give a chance to run I guess.

Vow, that would have been one of those films that glue you to your seat!!
In hindsight, not running should be better - who wants to die in the stampede, eh?

I live in Bangalore and we felt it here around 1:30 AM. It only lasted a couple of seconds. This was the second time I felt a tremor. The first one was in chennai when I just kept wondering why things are shakin up! But this time around, I quickly realized and ran out.

I suspected it to be some kind of a mild earthquake.
What build quality!
