OutSourced

After America's Got Talent, this show has become my personal favorite. I have watched the movie too and absolutely adored it. The clash of two cultures which have started to meet at different points due to converging job opportunities is interesting to watch. All the more coz I am an Indian living in US. I have myself first hand tasted the difference and appreciate it at the same time. I have also worked in US MNC's in India and noe how important it is to know the culture and mannerisms of your counterparts/client. Well, coming back to the serial, there is a lot of deviation from the original movie..the movie showed the call center in India at some remote place with cows doing their rounds in offc. In all parity this hardly exist (or I am ignorant ?)..the offcs in India are well maintained and at par. The set shown outside the offc in serial is too tacky. What I think they are trying to show is the "Indian Bazaar" and wants to capture all its essence but it really doesn't transform onto the screen. There is only 3 episodes on air till now. But it has already glued me onto the screen.

Silence and Tears

In secret we met--

In silence I grieve,

That thy heart could forget,

Thy spirit deceive

If I should meet thee After long years,

How should I greet thee?--With silence and tears.

beautiful words...separation from loved ones is alwz painful..wish we can hold on to everyone whom we love and are important in our lives forever and closely..wish we can see all of their faces on every single morning and kiss them goodnight every single night..bt ways of life and mundane chores of it..takes away you from your loved ones in an alien land..and leaves behind the thought of clinging them forever atleast in thoughts!!!!
