      Is this a commonly used line everywhere? or it's yet another one from the Indian dictionary? For whatever requests that comes from the mates, they say a "Thanks in advance" at the last line. Is it really a global expression? :~

          It's not commonly used here in the UK other than from those who insist on using vapid phrases such as "Run it up the flagpole to see who salutes" and "paradigm".

            Is this because: "after:" Indians are in such a timeless state of mind (would that be "divyan mada" ?), that there is no "after" ? best, Bill

              I am Indian, and would use "Thanks in Advance" when it is more like a request from my side, the person addressed to is from a different department, and is somewhat not officially obliged to answer you.

                    Nope. I will thank her if, in 100 years when I die, we had a good time together.
