Prank calls are the meat and potatoes of radio shows looking for humour without all the hard work of script writing and voice acting. I’ve heard alot of prank calls in my time, but this is the first time I’ve had a chance to listen to one made by a local Indian radio station. Here’s one that’s been making the email circles lately, and is pretty hilarious.

Granted it’s edited voice wise, and most of it is in indian, but if you listen closely to the conversation, you can sort of pick up (for the non-indian speaking readers) the english words scattered in the conversation. Also, halfway through the prank call, the conversation turns to english when the prankster gets transfered to a bored sounding Loans officer.

The real kicker is towards the end, when said prankster starts to get desperate.

Also, need a translator to transcribe the beginning and end Indian conversation ><
