OB hopping - Tuesday September 3.
( aka Another post with not enough useful information).
After leaving Raj Mahal, I decided to go bar hopping with a very specific purpose - locate my ATF (Shilpa) who used to dance at Cabana. BTW I was told that RajMahal is open until after midnight... this might prove useful just in case someone is looking for entry after the othet DBs close.
The tentative itinerary was - Icon, Star City OB, Bebo OB, Star Night OB, Nightingale OB and Meghraj OB.
The plan was to spend 30 minutes in each of the above. If I did find Shilpa, I was planning on cutting short the hopping part and stick to the OB where I found her. I posted about this on the thread and got responses from a couple of fellow mongers (in PM too) with suggestions and recommendations. Thanks guys, all of you are freaking awesome.
I entered ICON around 11:30pm. It was my first time at Icon. I ended up choosing a bad seat, specially if you intend to make a girl dance. FYI the best seats are either the small round table on the left just as you enter the bar OR the center tables along the right wall.
There were a couple of really hot dancers at Icon, but there was no sign of Shilpa.
I was about to call for my bill and head over to the next OB around midnight when she finally stepped out of the dressing room and on to the floor. Mission accomplished. I posted on the forum about my intention to cancel the bar hopping, but @AlwaysAshwin willed otherwise
I moved to a better table (still not the best ‘cos those were taken - AA being a Icon regular occupied one of the best vantage positions).
I was busy making Shilpa dance on every danceable song when AA sent an introductory note via his coatwala. After chatting with him, he graciously offered to drive me around NM to check out the other bars. He made a very valid observation that all OB dancers have about 10-12 signature steps that they repeat on every song. After a while their dances seem repetitive and boring.
Heeding his advice, we settled our respective bills in Icon around 1:45am and headed over to Cabana followed by Heaven6. We did not spend more than 30 minutes in each of these bars. We noticed that the number of girls and customers was very low in both the bars. Per the bar staff that was due to the ongoing Ganesh festivities.
Most of the Cabana OB girls from previous Sunday night were missing. AA did introduce me to his favorite at Heaven6... a lovely damsel who is also a fabulous dancer.
After exiting Heaven6 we did try Sona DB, but it was closed - according to the watchman, not enough customers or girls due to Ganpati.
We decided to call it a night and AA dropped me back to my hotel.
I am looking forward to my upcoming weekend’s visit to more DBs that are new to me. AA suggested a few that I intend to check out. Can’t guarantee I can provide any useful intel, but will definitely post about my visits.
Cheers guys.
