They seemed satisfied.

Then M2 asked other members if there is any question,  they said no then he said okay Wakhra Swag, all the best!

Main chair se utha sabko thank you bola and chal pda tabhi happened an interesting thing.  Jaise hi me door ke pass phuncha M2 asked "Sandeep, just a minute". Main peeche muda (sochte hue ab kya ho gya). He said (in cheerful mood), "aapne madam se nhi pucha ki woh khata khulwayenge aapke bank me?". I asked, " yes mam, whats your opinion? "  she laughed and said jarur. All laughed and I once again wished them and bahar nikal gya.

My advice to all aspirants:

1. Jitna ho sake gather I Information about your hobby and sport you play (in my case unhone cricket se related kuch nhi choda but I was well prepared)

2. Use words/phrases wisely during interview. Wahi words/phrases use kren jinki aapko achchi knowledge ho. Maine jaanbujhkar financial inclusion use kiya thaa and as anticipated unhone wahi phucha the only banking question.

All the best guys!
