PS3 Repair

I have the old PS3 (The very first 40 GB version).

Today I was playing a game and then suddenly it freezed and from then on the PS3 is not detecting the Disc Drive :( I tried some movie DVDs and some Game Blue-Ray discs. The PS3 does not even show a disc drive under "video" or "games" section! Inserting and ejecting discs still works but it makes weird sounds. When I insert a disc the blue light turns on and nothing happens after that.

I live in Bangalore. Is there any place in Bangalore where I can get this fixed? What could be the problem?
 
I guess what you have is SOD (Spin of Death). The PS3's lens is a goner and you will have to get it replaced. Check out the local grey market where consoles are sold. Shouldn't cost you more than 3k. Can be bargained for 2k also.
