Spirited Weekend

A fun-filled Saturday morning marked by music and madness, unbridled laughter, mutual leg-pulling, ceaseless exchanges of one-liners and quick repartees… all in a spirit of joie-de vivre. Some may have scoffed at the kind of liberties taken during the exercises today. But what do you do when racy numbers like ‘Hansta hua noorani chehra’ and ‘Gore-gore, baanke-chhore’ play in the background? What can be expected when the most talkative ladies of the Club gang up and are at their wittiest best, one trying to outdo the other? What else can Shekhawat do when he had three ‘sitting ducks’ in Geeta Sardhana, Nahid Khan and Ramila Mistry together (above) for the Slow-and-Fast laughter round? Of course, Bapu Rane and then, Kishor Babani tried to restrain him, but Shekhawat was already out guns blazing, with the three ladies in his direct range!
Sunita Jajodia was also there, having returned from the rigors of organizing her son’s wedding last Sunday. Some members (particularly, those not invited) pretended to be unaware of the event and took friendly digs at her. She silenced them suitably with a boxful of kaju-katlis (above), which were much appreciated. Everybody wished the lady well and blessed her son (in absentia) on beginning a new life with his bride. All told, a very happy morning!
Renu Babani's PIC-SPEAK:
* Control, control... a certain lion retreating his companion from being completely mauled by his counterparts. Here we come! Watch out!! You asked for it!!!
* Hey, please! Just what do you think you are doing? You need to keep for the others.
