After countless unsuccessful attempts over the past one year, a trip to Lonavala now looks likely – thanks to Kiran Sajjan’s invite to her son’s wedding. It is fixed for January 28 at Treasure Island Resort, Lonavala – but there will be a Sangeet Ceremony the day before (Sunday) at the same venue. The well-crafted invitation card was addressed to the Club in general and accompanied by three jumbo boxes of barfee.
All of a sudden, Kiran became the cynosure of all eyes (lead pic) with the ladies especially eager to confirm an overnight stay for themselves at the wedding venue. Monthi Serrao, Bhaswati Bose and Santosh Tyagi appear to have already swung things in their favour. Shekhawat too has some plans in mind since he kept inquiring about whether there would be spare rooms at the resort to spend the night. Only a handful of men agreed to make the trip on their own and return by night, rather than impose themselves unfairly on the host.
Meanwhile, the Rs50 collection drive (see yesterday’s post) has taken off successfully with more than Rs5,000 deposited with Shekhawat today. Members were happy that this would not only strengthen the sense of belongingness in the Club, but also weed out those who take their membership for granted. When Srichand Arora apologized for having to bring "monetary dealings" in the Club, many like Nafisa Sayyad, Arun Patil and Bose Babu argued that this was unavoidable with changing times. Jagmohan Papneja (pic above right) argued further that the Club at Garden No 2 also charges Rs50 per month and is going great guns with a 450-plus membership.
Incidentally, Papneja was spot on with that sarky comment (see yesterday’s post) about Hem Chand Jain "surprising" us. Well, true to reputation, the latter has wriggled out of his commitment at the eleventh hour. Indeed, it is time we dispense with this “indispensable” character.
Jagmohan Papneja:
For those willing to attend the marriage of Mrs Kiran Sajjan's son, Mr Shekhawat is trying for complete enjoyment, apart from the marriage party entertainment at Lonavala.

* Must appreciate the beautiful card and warmth with which Kiran-ji invited everyone to her son's wedding. We wish her great time and fun as she prepares for the grand wedding.
* Kiran-ji was also generous with the barfees and to say it bluntly, many of us pounced on more than one... Sorry for being such bhukkads Kiran-ji!
