Mallu in space along with Virgin !
India's first space tourists is ready to fly and guess who can it be? A mallu of course, who else? Mallu's are anyway omnipotent in all parts of the world (when my colleagues first travelled to Schenzen in China to visit our office there and tried to track an Indian restaurant, they could only find a hole in the wall run by a mallu.) So its only appropriate that the first space tourist from India would be from malluland- Simmmbly right, I say. I can only hope that Santosh George opens an Idli Sambar stall once he is up there.
BTW, 1 crore for a ride to space is not as expensive as one would have imagined. I am sure Richard Branson's virgin can get the price down by half, once they start pulling in more volumes and if the first few flights work well (which means if people survive to tell the tale). So one can easily imagine the price coming down to aroudn the Rs.50 lakhs range- which I am sure, would even lead to queues of Sardarjis, Gujjus and of course, Mallus, in front of the Virgin Airlines office : )
