Meherbai had gone overboard with deliciously rich and sinfully calorie-loaded goodies during the Navroze season. On Independence Day, she went to the Parsi Gymkhana for the flag-hoisting and had a huge breakfast. It was also her friend Ketayun’s birthday-dinner that night and she went crazy with the desserts. Also, it was their friends – Bomi…
Meherbai arranged for an evening of monsoon melodies at the party-room of the Wodehouse Gymkhana over tea and steaming hot assorted pakodas. Her entire Mandli turned up in spite of flooded roads, late trains, traffic jams and the ‘dhoom-dhadakas’ of thunder, streaks of lightning, savage winds and trees swaying like Hawaiian dancers.
