Alas! The era of telegram, which started way back in 1850, finally came to an end on late Sunday evening (14 July 2013). And with this, the 163-year old telegram service in the country has been laid to rest. RIP.
One is reminded that with the use of the same service, one could send messages of sorrow or joy to his near and dear ones and friends within a matter of hours and get a reaction to that instantly.
What was once the fastest means of communication for millions, the telegram service went into oblivion with the change of technology that has resulted in services like SMS, emails, and mobile phones.
In our anxiety, we got in touch with a few TV actors and asked them as to what would be their last telegram message if they had to send one and to whom. Here's what they had to say:
Tum Se Tum Tak
Ganesh Kartikeya
