No Indian Style, Please
This seen in the men’s room of one of those swanky Gurgaon offices. So who among us has ever tried this? I would like to hear from you. Most people wont even be fit enough to balance themselves from the slippery, narrow perch high above the ground, me thinks. Not to mention the drop...
Royal Rumble in the Skies. Air India Style.
A Stewardess. A Disgruntled Purser. An Angry Pilot. 100 odd Amused Passengers. One Hugely Embarrassed Airline. The Maharaja witnessed his first in-flight Mughal-e-Azam at 30,000 feet above sea level on Saturday, as two members of the cabin crew—one male and one female—slugged it out with the pilot and co-pilot.
