Body Search

Geeta is mighty suspicious about Arun Patil

The allure of the Pehchaan Kaun trophy led to a piquant situation this morning with all the male members standing to lose their shirts. From Tara Chand Seth to Harish Wadhwa, everyone was subjected to a body search for that elusive mole in the back which might give away their identity (see post of July 14). One by one, they allowed Srichand Arora to lift the back of their shirts -- some thrusting their bums at him -- to confirm they did not carry the telltale mole.
Only Arora did not bare his back.
It all began with Geeta Sardhana casting a suspicious eye at Arun Patil and challenging him to expose his upper back. A three-time winner of earlier editions of this guessing game, Geeta’s opinion is much valued and that was why a printout of the picture of the ‘mysterious boy’ had been made available to her today. Ever ready to oblige, Arora pounced upon Arun (who was unfortunately already prepared to do a Salman Khan on-the-spot) only to draw a blank.

Arun also bares his back

Tara Chand obliges

Arora then caught hold of Tara Chand, who was equally obliging. Once again, the ladies peered. No luck. No mole.

Jagmohan resists

Harish is all-willing

Jagmohan Papneja was next. He put up a mild resistance, but eventually bared his back like the rest. In fact, everyone was only too eager to allay all doubts and get out of the zone of suspicion.
Harish Wadhwa didn’t even need to be persuaded. He had got his godsent opportunity to exhibit his macho body and would have taken off his shirt (and much else) were it not for the presence of over-curious ladies around.
That was when Santosh Tyagi came up with her sage advice: Instead of heading to Lonavala for a picnic this Saturday, why don’t we go to Water Kingdom? Before getting into the water, the men would strip to their bare essentials and automatically expose their backs. The ladies could then feast their eyes on them and anyone with a big mole on his back would be instantly caught out. Everyone agreed it was a brilliant piece of advice – just that it has come a day too late.
Harish Wadhwa:
What a scene, as men 'strip' to flaunt moles on their back! Amazing what people can do to get the precious winning trophy. This can happen only in Big Laaf... Has anyone dared such an act before? Luckily the mole-hunt was restricted to the back, else many of us could have landed behind bars (LOL). Arora-ji, mila kya... I mean the mole?!!
