Delightful experience with Micky Mehta - Thanks to the club I used to see Micky Mehta on the TV with lots of celebrities in Bombay and thanks to <strong>India</strong> <strong>Club</strong>, we got the opportunity to meet him in person. Meeting him and listening to him was a real delight for me. He has a very practical meaningful attitude for life and I gained a lot from him. Spending 2 days with him and learning his exercises in the water was great too. Best Letter His positive vibration with all the <strong>India</strong> <strong>Club</strong> members was amazing. His teaching will be with me throughout my life. According to him, be positive, practical and most importantly, do one good deed everyday and be focussed in life in whatever we do. Three cheers for him! I wish he can make more trips to the club and we all can benefit with his mind and body knowledge. Treat our mind and body as a temple. Once again thanks to our <strong>India</strong> <strong>Club</strong>. Renu Mendiratta Membership No. 1885 Eid Celebration – Qawali Night When I heard about “Eid Celebration – Qawali Night”, I just could not resist from attending, as this was something I cannot afford to miss. I have always noted that <strong>India</strong> <strong>Club</strong> has the art of giving the best shot at any festive events, from “Holi” to “Onam” and from “Navratri” to “EID Celebrations”. The entire ambience was changed to suit the theme of music. Pleasant weather, Outdoor setting under the open sky, along with great music took me to a different world, enabling my mind to totally unwind. Toshi’s performance was at its best, from “Raag” to “Sufi”. The music filled the air with so much of energy, that the guests were on the floor dancing to the rhythm, enjoying every beat of the music. A big thanks to <strong>India</strong> club for all their efforts and initiative to keep us connected to our roots. I look forward to many more such events, as such musical events enhance our love for music & bring synergy of both body & mind. Najeeb Mithvani Membership No. 4279 4 <strong>India</strong> <strong>Club</strong> Two great nights of Dandiya Dhamaka! The eagerly awaited, the most popular dance festival - Dandiya Night was amazing! It was awesome to see everyone dressed in colourful costumes - ghagra cholis with mirror work, etc. All were mesmerized by the dancers spinning to the choreographed tunes with the colourful dance sticks! Each one was in their own groups, enjoying the fun, dancing to the latest re-mixes and beats. The bright lights, the ethnic wear, the ethnic jewelry, the loud music added to the enthusiasm of the crowds. It was enthralling to see the youngsters dance to the beat of the fusion music. A troupe dancing to the traditional Garba dance took the cake. One and all enjoyed the evening.
