If you have ever done phone banking or called your network providers customers service,then it will be very likely that you got transfered over to over to a Indian call centre...Now do you want to see what really goes behind the scenes in a call centre?....Then watch this short 12 minute film..All i can say is that its very entertaining,you will have to watch this its a must see!

lol very funny, how close to reality must that be i wonder lol
Posted by dr_thug
it was funny... Hindi which was spoken in the end was also funny.Typical Indian comedy skit made in US/UK...
But...
Please keep in mind that these r all exaggerated..i dont know what happens inside a call centre but the shots of call centre located in rural India was bit offensive and very false...also the guy dressed as if it was his marriage wearing a 'tilak' on his forehead attending call was way too much...

That's the cheapest way to portray hows things are here in INDIA. Its ok in a jocular sense but if its pulling the legs of the hundred thousand Indians working in BPO's, then its a SERIOUS and CHEAP trick. I won't write much about what REALLY happens down here, as it would seem, like dr_thug said, an exaggeration. We all have been associated with esato for quite some time now. We have posted some of our views and replied to others' as well. And there has been a really good communication on both the sides. And I don't think there's a soul in the forum who considers us(Indians) any lesser than the rest. We all are proud to be BORN IN INDIA and I guess, everyone does. So bottomline is : LETS NOT HURT EACH OTHER'S SENTIMENTS, BUT HEAR OUT EACH OTHER'S FEELINGS...correct me if I'am wrong. Any feedback is welcome as regards to this post.

Why are you taking this personal? its meant to be a joke, and on top of that its the indians them self who made this comedy.
Posted by axxxr
Yes please don't take this personaly...its all meant to be light hearted fun...like Upper just said its made by Indians so whats the problem?...And did'nt you notice the African masai warrior in the end with the english accent!
Posted by SE Rules
Thats was really good! Loved that dude at the end's accent, found that particularly funny!
Cheers

Um I work in a callcenter and I found it halarious.
How anyone can take this seriously is amazing. For a start putting someone on a suicide hotline on hold? Come on
The only thing they didn't portray properly is how bad CUSTOMERS can be

LOL!!!! Its goddamn hillarious!!!
I've worked for a few call centers (AOL and Oracle) before, for most young indians its just like a stop gap. Like ameriacns work in McDonalds or Wait at cofee houses.They dont show that in this film. But it made me laugh so hard!!!
Anyone know any way we can save the movie to the hard drive?
Posted by neha10
I haven't seen the movie but stop making fun of us. The fact that Indians made this makes me sick...but then again they must be NRIs...oh I'm damn sure.

@debu the file will be saved as a flash video (.flv) file in your temp folder. You need a directshow flv filter to play it in mediaplayer, but i think vlc can play it fine.

lol, well they did kind of with the cable guy threatening to come and get the guy lol.
Funny thing was the other day I had to ring apple, and although they don't have any indian call centers anymore I was talkining to some french guy, and couldnt understand him either. In the end he actually transfered me to a brittish worker who sorted the problem out in a few min lol
Posted by clank
Wow!! That was hysterical!
Amazing find axxr
Posted by max_wedge
yup, I've worked in call centres, and the joke is just as funny if the call centre is Australian as if it's Indian, so it's not a joke about Indians, but a joke about Call Centres.
A very freakin' funny joke too

I remember a story in which a guy asked an old lady to open up the computer cover while on the phone...but lady did not bother to power the system off! the next moment he hears some screaming sound and the line disconnected! The guy was terrified and kept checking the ladys case logs for two months to see whether it was updated..which meant she had not er..GONE
