On Air
Happened to be on an Air India flight a few days ago. Was getting quite bored. Decided to check out whats on air, because, being an infrequent flier, I consider it my birthright to check each and every thing in the pocket in the front. And because I was the only one in the row, I didn't avoid exercising this right to appear as a frequent flier ;).
Pretty interesting experience. Here is how it went:
[Plugged-in and put on the headphones]
Channel: 1, Volume: 3
"Prrrrrrrrrrrrr"
Channel: 2, Volume: 3
(only left channel): "ek dilruba hai ek dilruba hai...meri ulfat meri wafa hai..."
[Okay, this was something I could map with what's on the TV]
Channel: 2, Volume: 4,5,6,7
(only left channel): "ooo..oo...mera dil jis dil pe fida hai..."
Channel: 2, Volume: 9
(both channels):"EK DILRUBA HAI EK DILRUBA HAI"
Channel: 3, Volume: 3-9
" "
Channel: 4, Volume: 3
(both channels):"PIYA KANHA MAIN TOSEY HAARI...OOO..PIYA KANHA MAIN TOSEY HAARI"
Channel: 5, Volume: 3
"Prrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr"
[Gave up and started struggling to sleep again. Now bored AND frustrated]
