The Oorgaum Hall

In the early 1900s a separate Picture Hall was built in Oorgaum quite close to the KGF Gymkhana Club and named as the Oorgaum Hall to screen only English Movies and Documentaries once or twice a week,

The Oorgaum Hall was just a basic Hall with a large white screen and a hand operated Projector and wooden benches for seating. This picture halls screened all genre of English Films and was a favourite haunt of all the youngsters in KGF

This is a picture of the Oorgaum Hall in the early 1900s when it was initially built.The Oorgaum Library, Telephone Exchange, etc were built later on.
