This is from an interesting article from today's Times of India page 9, pointed out to me by Sandeep Shetty.
"Mumbai: When Suresh Vinarkar discusses politics with his friends on the train, everyone listens. They even ignore the announcement at the platform, to hear his views on Natwar Singh. Some stare in awe, others in disbelief, as he holds forth. But when a curious co-passenger asks him about his profession, Suresh stops talking. He simply flashes his identity-card that says "Railway Announcer, Dadar Terminus " he knows by now that "they wouldn't believe me otherwise". "
this reminds me of a conversation with Arsalan Zaidi, where he commented about the announcer at malad station. "i have been hearing this same voice(of a lady announcer) since past 4 years, it's surely recorded" and i agreed with him ;)
