A few problems with your code :

  • You're calling favTheater(id) on click but you didn't define an id,
  • you're using window.event, which exists only on IE. Note also that those old IE browsers didn't have stopPropagation (it came with IE9),
  • there is no reason to stop propagation or prevent default as you're replacing the page immediately with http://www.google.co.in/,
  • as noticed by jerome.s, there would be nothing to propagate anyway as your div isn't in a clickable element,
  • there isn't any default behavior to prevent (clicking on a div does nothing without specific handler), so preventDefault is useless.

So, your code is "not working", but it's hard to incriminate stopPropagation
