Once I happened to visit my friend Dr.Murali to wish him a safe journey as he had to leave India for London to visit his daughter. When I went there he was in the nursing home to attend a case so I was to wait for him in his apartment. His wife was telling us about their new Dish Network. First I thought that she was talking about some ordinary TV channel. It was a pleasant surprise for me. I don’t have a TV with a satellite dish. She ws skimming through the channels. I saw the magic with my eyes wide open. The channels included all programs to everyone’s liking.

I decided at once to get Dish Network to satisfy my daughter who was pestering me to get one. I asked my friend about the variety of channels available. She informed me that DishMEXICO was something worth checking out.

The dish TV ads are there on TV but I never paid any attention to them. Now I understood how ignorant I was. I ignored the ad and now my friend’s wife gave me the slap on my face by showing the same ad and asked me to get one like that. When we were discussing about it my friend came and joined in our chat. He briefed about his London visit and in the midst our talk again took a diversion.Dr.Murali told me that even he didn’t know much about the dish TV. Only his wife gave him tips about DishMEXICO. Now he was able to watch program he likes. His interest is cricket match. His wife glues to the serials telecasted. I wondered how it was possible for them to watch the programs at the same time. He told me that it was very simple as when he was watching his wife would be busy with preparing their meals giving up her program. As we were busy in our talk his wife switched on the TV and showed the BBC news and after some time she changed the channel to POGO. Like wise she changed the channels with a click. Nearly 100 channels are there for our choice. How wonderful!! I returned home and told my father about dish TV. We sat to sort out means to get one as our house has many unequal interested heads living together. First I enquired about the price. I had a pleasant shock to be informed that it didn’t cost as I feared. It was in three digit expenditure in Indian currency. We again sat for another round of talk about the shop from where we have to purchase dish TV. My father knows many shopers.So the task of giving order was assigned to him. My daughter already fixed timing for each one to watch their favorite channel. This again made us to sit for another peace talk to compromise to see a particular program, I decided to get another Dish Latino and a new TV to be fixed to my daughter’s room. This arrangement was to thwart an attempt of kicks from her. So all were settled peacefully for watching our best channels. We early waited for the fantastic day of installation of DishMEXICO in our house. In India it has become an unwritten law that any inclusion or exclusion should be informed to the near by houses or relatives. As per the rule I relayed the news to every one around our house. The dream day came. The Dish Latino was installed and I had a tough task of preparing tea and tiffin for the guests. The grand show kicked off with news.Oh! ho! A sharp contrast voices rose from all corners. Then only we realized that people came with a dream of seeing all the channels on the same screen! Oops! We didn’t have that facility to see everything on the same screen. What to do? Those came were only the old people who wanted to pass time some how or other. I had tough time in explaining them that we called them for a sample show and not for showing anything for their demand. After this incident I never inform anything to our neighbors especially the old retired persons. Now I am proud to have the dish TV to see as many channels as we wish!
