GURUGRAM: Readers and cinema-goers can build next weekend around three separate programmes at Museo Camera: a Silent Book Club on October 31, an evening centred on Sahir the same day, and a screening of the Kashmiri film Batt Koch on November 1.
The museum's own event pages set out different timings and entry arrangements for each. They are individual programmes at the DLF Phase IV venue, so a booking for one should not be assumed to cover the others or a visit to the permanent museum collection.
Saturday begins with books and ends with Sahir
The Silent Book Club is listed for Saturday, October 31, from 11 am to 1 pm. The venue marks it free and permits visitors to drop in. That makes it the lowest-commitment option in the published programme, with no ticket purchase specified on the event page.
Readers can take a book they already want to spend time with and keep the rest of the afternoon flexible. The brief listing does not name a required title, a guest author or a structured discussion. Anyone coming specifically for one of those should check with the venue before treating it as part of the session.
Later on Saturday, Dil Abhi Bhara Nahi: Mehfil-e-Sahir, presented as a Heritage Walks by Mujib programme, runs from 5 pm to 7 pm. The museum displays a fee of Rs 799 and provides a registration route. The price was checked on October 25; availability and any checkout charges need to be checked when booking.
Batt Koch is listed for Sunday, November 1
The film screening is scheduled for 4.30 pm to 6.30 pm on November 1, with tickets displayed at Rs 300. Both the museum's event page and the current organiser booking page give that Sunday date. Residents should use it when setting a reminder rather than relying on an older event-index result.
Directed by Siddarth Koul and Ankit Wali, Batt Koch follows a Kashmiri Pandit family in Jammu and an elderly man's grief, memory and desire to return to Kashmir. The advertised programme includes a conversation with M.K. Raina, conducted by writer and organiser Anuradha Duda Reddy, after the screening.
The booking page allows all ages, requires tickets from age eight and excludes pets. Its descriptive note says seating is allocated in arrival order, while a general facility label refers to pre-assigned seating. That inconsistency is a reason to ask the organiser about seat allocation, especially for a group wanting to sit together.
Museo Camera is on Shri Ganesh Mandir Marg, DLF Phase IV, Sector 28. Its general museum hours are 11 am to 7 pm, with Mondays closed. The permanent collection's admission is listed separately from these event fees. Confirm whether a combined visit needs another ticket before turning a screening plan into a full museum afternoon.
The sequence offers several ways to spend the weekend without committing to an all-day festival. Choose the session that interests you, keep its confirmation handy and leave time for the journey. The details make it possible to plan a specific cultural outing rather than arrive hoping that every part of the programme is open.
