Try resetting the video settings:

To reset the display settings of the Xbox 360 console to the default settings, follow these steps:
1. Remove any discs from the disc tray.
2. Turn the console off.
3. Turn the console on.

Note: If you are using an Xbox 360 Wireless Controller, turn the console on by using the Xbox Guide button on the controller. Make sure that you use the player 1 controller when you do this. The player 1 controller will have the upper-left quadrant light illuminated.

4. As the console starts, press and hold the Y button, and then pull the right trigger at the same time.
5. The Xbox Dashboard resets the display settings to the default settings, and then automatically restarts the console.

Make sure all the cables are properly plugged in and also try to detach every cable connected to the console and re-attach them.

You will need this:

It's called a 3.5mm Stereo Female to 2 RCA Female splitter cable. You need to connect the composite cable plug into your 360 and the audio ends into this splitter and route it via the 3.55mm plug to your headphones/speakers.
 
yep i bought a splitter cabe and atcahed composie cable as weel but getting no audio

the colour of the the ends in which i insert my red and white wire from compiste is yellow i think i neeed a red and white spliter cable..

I had purchased mine from an Electronic store in Borivali. Show them this image if you have to. It should cost you around 50 bucks or so.
 
i even did the same thing saved the adpater pic in my cell and will show to guy in the computer shop .
and ethan which electronic store in borivali it would be helpful
 
I'm afraid, I don't know the name of the store, Nikhil. It's been almost 3 years since I visited that place. I'm pretty sure it was close to Indraprastha shopping center.
