So the story goes this way : Friday night, a friend of mine and me decided to go to ClarkeQuay to kill some time. We strolled around the place for a while and then the idea of having a drink came up. Given that ClarkeQuay has a ton of pubs, the choice was difficult. But my friend was very clear : he wanted to goto a desi pub that had desi music and desi 'girls'. So we started checking out the area and saw one named "Bollywood Dhoom". We entered the club and, Bang ! What we see is a hall of probably 30feetX10feet with sofa seats all around it, loud bollywood music playing, and a couple of desi girls dancing in the center, somewhat similar to what Mumbai Dance Bars were. I couldn't help but laugh and I was actually laughing: the girls weren't any good, rather they were healthy aunties. All the fellows out there were middle aged desis with quite a few already gone bald. Some of those bald men were quite excited too ! A couple of desi fellows were on the dance floor dancing with the aunties..err girls. What was even more funny was that there was a chinese looking lady who was accompanying a desi fellow and both of them were so overwhelmed that in a moment they were on the dance floor too!
We took a bottle each of beer and enjoyed the antics of the fellows on the dance floor while we finished the drink. I think we were there for some 10-15 mins. There were some 3-4 more dancers who would interchange positions after each song, but none of them were any good:neither good looking nor good dancers. As soon as we finished our bottles, we left for home. None of us had to explicitly say that BD was not a place to visit again.
