Event to Remember

Of the 17 from the Club who attended Arun Patil’s party last night, only two turned up today – Hari Narayani and Ved Prakash Grover. Later, midway through the exercises, Geeta Sandana walked in. All the rest – including Shekhawat, Yusuf-bhai, Kishor and Dilip Babani, Razia Khan, Mumtaz, Nafisa… could not make it. They were the prime casualties of what seems to have been the Baap Of All Birthday Bashes.
“You can’t blame them because they were all eating chicken-tangdi and kababs till late night,” explained Hari-bhai. “We were the ghaas-phoos people who left early.”
But who was interested in who ate what?
“Yes, they came,” Grover clarified. “What do you call them? Enikh?!?”
“Very beautiful,” Hari-bhai pointed out. “Kya kudrat ka kamal hai! Bahut entertainment hua…”
“We all enjoyed,” Geeta-ji joined in.
“Chhi-chhhi, how can you say that?” a lady interjected.
“Kya woh insaan nahin hai?” demanded Hari-bhai.
“Suchh-muchh, bahut khubsoorat thhe,” Grover said, nodding his head.
“Aur kuchh indecent bhi toh nahin hua,” affirmed Geeta-ji. “Sab ne enjoy kiya.”
That sums it up. Quite clearly the eunuchs were the star attraction, though to many, a culture shock. After all, how many of us have ever attended a birthday bash with hijras in attendance? In their presence, everything else pales into insignificance -- including issues of propriety and precedence anybody could have had. The bottomline is that everybody had a blast and this is what underscores the success of any party. Bringing in the eunuchs was a master stroke by Arun-bhai at ensuring that his birthday remains an event to remember.
Another enikh party, anybody?
