By the she told that my visa is approved, i was not able to hear what she says as i was tottaly exhausted with this Interview!
Anyways its done, i guess she is the most toughest Interviewer Over there. Other windows are not so much tuff i guess.

And main thing, My interview was at 9.15, and i went inside at 8.10 am, so you can go inside 1 hour before. Go Chennai!!!
