IMAX Theater Hyderabad
The opening of the IMAX Theater in Hyderabad marks a new epoch in the evolution of Indian cinema. Having revolutionized the movie viewing experience world wide, this technology is all set to make a paradigm shift in the Indian Cinema as well. The fact that our capital city has the first IMAX Theater in the entire South India ipso facto makes this event more significant to us. Prasad's IMAX theater that was flagged off to the Hyderabad public on 25th of July has the following distinctions
- South India's First IMAX theater
- India's 3rd IMAX theater
- World's largest 3-D IMAX screen
This Prasad's IMAX multiplex is located on the banks of Hussain Sagar lake at the heart of Hyderabad.

Necklace road
The new Necklace road ends/starts here, skirting the lake shore and once some greenery grows it will be very popular. N. T. Rama Rao's memorial is here too, and an 'amusement park'. The necklace road is getting popular. There are "Laser fountains" on the Necklace road. During holidays people of Hyderabad swarm on the banks of the lake to view the lighting and reflections of the well lighted constructions around the lake.
To the north of the Hussain Sagar is the area of Begumpet, where the airport is located. A large road runs through the narrow strip of land between the airport and the lake, connecting Secunderabad to Ameerpet on the west.
Budha Statue
Right in the middle of the lake a gigantic stone Buddha statue stands in benediction. It is said to be the second biggest free standing monolith statue in the world, being 18 metres high and weighing 350 tonnes. On the dam, beside the road, there is a wide swath of grass lawn and flowering plants. There are bronze statues of luminaries of Andhra Pradesh down the centuries all along the road.
