5 things to do when the Metro accidently stops enroute

·         Call your college buddies, say your name, ask how are you, and then say, you are in the Metro, there is a network issue and disconnect; that way they can’t say that you don’t ever call them

·         Peek outside the glass and count the no. of trees on the ground (in day)/peek outside the glass and count the no. of cars on the road (in night)

·         Take out your phone, start talking loudly mentioning your upcoming/past encounters with famous people in believable situations, i.e. when is the shoot with Shahrukh; when is minister sahib coming, I heard he cancelled the trip to discuss the border situation with the PM; Sania eats at my friend’s restaurant every Friday, I will catch her there this time, so on and so forth

·         Walk from one end of the Metro to another (if you are a male, please don’t enter the ladies coach) while keeping your head down and blurting out ‘Excuse me(s)’ to everyone

·         Ask someone to let you use their mobile phone while also mentioning that they shouldn’t be scared, you just look like a wannabe thief and anyway, you can’t run with their phone as the metro is not moving
