× Then I go out and watch a movie or a visit mall with my friends.
✓ Then I go out and watch a movie or visit a mall with my friends.
The verb 'visit' should be in its base form after 'or' when used with another verb 'watch' in the same structure. Using 'a visit mall' is incorrect because 'visit' is a verb and 'mall' is a noun; the article 'a' should come before 'mall' and 'visit' should not have 'a' before it.
× It is national holiday which is celebrated on 22nd October.
✓ It is a national holiday which is celebrated on 22nd October.
The sentence is missing the indefinite article 'a' before 'national holiday'. In English, singular countable nouns usually require an article. Hence, 'a national holiday' is correct.
