Party season in Kolkata


Went back to Kolkata for the weekend on Saturday afternoon and came back to Delhi today morning. Good friends Amajeet Banerjee, Harsh Neotia and Rajive Kaul were there on that flight and after reaching Kolkata Harsh took Amajeet and me to show his new City Centre and treated us to Coffee at the Creperie. He is always very kind to me.
Missed Sanjay Budhia’s party on 19th which he hosts every year but did manage to attend Neelanjana Sengupta’s birthday bash at Soho which had a very selective gathering. Jishu and Neelanjana are very warm and played the perfect host. Had an adda session with Prasenjit, Arpita and Jishu at Soho. Later, Harsh and Madhu joined in.
It seems to be a party season in Kolkata - 19th was at Sanjay Budhia’s, 21st at Neelanjana’s, today there is Tony’s felicitation at The Park, 23rd there is a get together at the Floatel, 25th Abhijit Sen’s dinner, 26th Joy Ganguly’s 033 Music Album celebrations at the Little Italy and Gulab Bari event. On the 27th family friend Suuchanndra’s CD launch at the Taj Terrace.
On the same day Jogen Choudhury’s famous annual Dol (Holi) programme would be held at Shantiniketan.
There are more than 25 different invitations for dol and Holi which are organised different people and organisations every year before Holi. Apart from these, there are in fact some more invitations in Kolkata and outside noted in my diary. One of which I wanted to attend is in Bywar Rajasthan. Let me see which all I can manage and which I miss.
