| U may live to see a whole new world where this could be a reality..............
Year : 2053
Place : Two Americans at IBM, USA. Currency
Conversion Rate: Rs.1 =$100
Alex : Hi John, you didn't come yesterday to
office?
John : Yeah, I was in Indian Embassy for stamping.
Alex: Oh really, what happened, I heard that
nowadays it has become very strict.
John : Yeah, but I managed to get it.
Alex : How long it took to get it stamped?
John : Oh, it was nasty man, long queue. That's why it got delayed.I went there at 2 am itself and waited and returned by 4pm.
Alex : Really? In India, it is a matter of an hour to get stamped for USA.
John : Yeah, but that is because who in India will be interested in coming to USA man, their economy has been booming.
Alex : So, when are you leaving?
John : Anytime, after receiving my tickets from the client in India and you know, I will be getting a chance to fly Air- India.
Sort of dream come true.
Alex : How long are you going to stay in India?
John : What do you mean by how long? I will be settled in India, my company has promised me that they will process my Hara Patta.
Alex : Really, lucky person man, it is very
difficult to get a Hara Patta in India.
John : Yeah, that's why, I am planning to marry an Indian girl there.
Alex : But you can find lots of US girls in
Bangalore, Hyderabad
and Mumbai.
John : But, I prefer Indian girls because they are beautiful and cultured.
Alex : Where did you get the offer, Bangalore?
John : Yeah, salary is good there, but cost of living is quite high,it is Rs. 1000/- for a single room accommodation.
Alex : I see, that's too much for US people, Rs.1/ = $ 100/-. Oh God!
What about in Hyderabad, Chennai & Mumbai?
John : No idea, but it is less than what we have in Bangalore.It islike the world headquarters of Software.
Alex : I heard, almost all the Indians are having one personal Robot for help.
John : You can get a BMW car for Rs. 5000/-, and a personal ) Robot for less than Rs. 7500/-. But my dream is to purchase Ambassadoradorwhich costs Rs.200000/-.)
Alex : By the way, who is your client?
John : A pure Indian origin company, specializing in Embedded Software.
Alex : Oh, really, lucky to work in a pure Indian origin company. They are really intelligent and unlike American bodyshoppers who have opened their Fly-by-night outfits in India. Indian companies pay you in full even when you are on bench. My friend Paul Allen, it seems, used his bench time to visit Bihar, the most liveable place in )India, probably world. There you have full ffreedom and no restrictions. You can do whatever you want! I wonder how that state has perfectedthat system.
John : Yeah man, you are right. I hope our America also follows their footsteps.
Alex : How are you going to cope with their
language?
John : Why not? From my school days I have been learning Hindi as my first language here at New York.At theConsulate they tested my proficiency in Hindi and were quite impressed by my cent percent score in TOHIL (Test of Hindi as International Language).
Alex : So, you are going to have fun there.
John : Yeah, I will be travelling in the world's fastest train, world's largest theme park, and the famous Bollywood where you can see actors like, Vrithik(son of Hrithik), and all. Esselworld is also near to Hollywood.
Alex : You know, the Indian PM is scheduled to visit US next year,he may then relax the number of visas.
John : That's true. Last month, Narayanamurthy Jr. visited White House and donated Rs. 2000/- for infrastructure development at Silicon Valley and has promised more if we follow the model of Silicon city of Bangalore. Bill Gates jr.also got a chance of meeting him. Very lucky person.
Alex : OK, Good Luck John.
John : Same to you Alex. And don't go to Consulate in a Kurta Pyjama because they will think you are too Indianised and may doubtyou But don't forget to say "Namaste, aap kaise hai" to the Visa issuer. It seems he likes that and will not give you a visa if
you don't greet him that way.
