For a change the consulate officer was sweating badly.

It thus proved that it all depends on your luck and the mood of the consulate officer. I saw a few consulate officers who were asking some more details like invitation letter and then approving.
He did not ask me for any of the letters (sponsorship, invitation) which I was carrying with me.
