Girls night out!

A girls night out is always fun! Had one after a long time and totally enjoyed myself. For one I was longing to go dancing since like ages. And that wish was fulfilled bigtime last night. I danced away and totally let go. Strangely the dance floor was full of girls and there were few guys. The reason being that stags are not allowed on the dance floor! Honestly I knew or rather thought that stags were not allowed in at all but once they were in, I wasnt aware of a rule where they were not allowed on the dance floor. The logic or rationale being that maybe they may get drunk and then try to act funny with women or somethig on those lines probably.

For once I felt bad for the guys. For all you know they may have been decent enough and have just come there like the rest of us to have a good time and so its quite unfair to not let them dance the night away and enjoy themselves just cos they dont have girls with them! From where my friends and me were dancing, we could see clusters of guys standing at various corners at the bar, grooving to the music. Then there were others who were standing just near the dance floor, dancing and still others who were indulging themselves at their own tables!

The venue was Firangi Paani at andheri and its quite a nice, spacious place with systems very much in place. There were bouncer kinda guys at both ends of the dance floor! The ambience and vibe of the place were perfect and the lighting and interiors set the right mood! We just chilled with drinks initially before we hit the dance floor and grooved away to the evergreen 80's/90's numbers! They never go out of vogue, do they!! Tarzan boy, Self control, Girls just wana have fun, Boney M and the list was endless! My request for the night was "Gime hope Joanna"! I just love dancing to that song for some reason! It really makes me want to jump and dance like there is no tomorrow!

The music then changed to trance which I can enjoy a bit but cant handle too much of and thats when we decided to feed our appetites and just chill at our table! After awhile the whole trance bit got too much and just when we were hoping that it should change, the DJ did the needful and started to play some great hindi numbers. No night out, especially when you go dancing, is complete without our very own desi beats! They just get out something else in you! The DJ started with Chhamak Chhalo and everyone went mad. (Atleast the songs did it for SRK, if not the film!) And then there were a mix of some old groovy numbers where we literally went all out and did some crazy stuff! We were so pooped that we could have dropped dead but the awesome music kept us going. The crazy, funky steps that you can do on our hindi songs, you just cant do even on some of the best english numbers! Atleast all of us in our group would vouch for that.

And since the night is usualy incomplete without the funny parts, here goes... When I looked at the menu and was deciding on which drink to order I glanced through a section that caught my eye because of the names of the drinks. I thought they were cocktails and the two between which I wanted to take my pick were, Screaming orgasm and Silk panties. I was very amused. The former blend seemed more exciting so when I had to place the order I strangely said 'Smoking orgasm'. The waiter dint get it and I gave him the benefit of doubt as the music was way too loud for anyone to hear anything unless the mouth of the one who spoke was literally stuck to the ear of the one who was supposed to listen :) So I repeated myself and he still dint get it and thats when my friend and me thought there was something wrong and looked at the menu again and then we both had the 'OH OK!!!' look on our faces and then I said 'Screaming orgasm' and we both burst out laughing along with the waiter ofcourse. I have no clue what made me change the 'screaming' to 'smoking'! The waiter then informed me that they were shooters which you finish at one go so I wasnt too pleased with that as I wanted to sip and enjoy my drink so then I asked about 'cocktails' and finally without wasting too much time settled for 'Sex on the beach'! :)

The other funny bit was when we were on the dance floor, there was this girl who was skimpily dressed and was dancing with a guy all along. Then suddenly out of nowhere she came and started to dance with one of us and was dancing too close for comfort and made some nasty moves. Initially we were amused but then she dint look like she was going to stop and my other friend went and started dancing alongside in a bid to help out. Then this babe was literally onto her and then she came to me and there was this point that I literally felt like she is going to smooch or kiss us. Thats how close she got! But thank God she then went onto someone else, specifically speaking a sardar who wasnt the guy with her and she merrily danced away, arm around his waist! Wonder where her guy and the sardar's girl were!!! :)

All in all a superb night which was totally dedicated to DANCING! And boy was I glad for that or what! Atleast for the time being I seem satiated. So a big thanks to Manj and Prats that we could work this out and there were no hiccups in the plan or the coordination bit. We decided and made it happen! Cheers to my girl pals for that!

And another heartening fact is that when you make sure you can organise things well and get things in order, you dont need the guys . I dont say that in a feminist way. I would love it equally if the men were around but its no longer like you cant go out and have a good time just cos you dont have guys with you. Another factor making a big contribution to it is that this is Mumbai city and overall, despite stray incidents happening, by and large we live in a safe city which will hopefully always be like that by the very nature and fabric of it! And to add to that the good places make sure they do the needful so as to make the women feel safe and the ratio of women to men yesterday was proof enough. Very reassuring!

To sum it all up, a great night dedicated to lovely friends, a perfect venue, good music and above all DANCE! :)
And looking forward to many more of such memorable nights out!!!!
