Dear Members,

We celebrated ‘Holi’, the festival of colours at our Vice President, Saira Jethnani’s residence at Menara Kondominium, Poolside. On arrival everyone was traditionally greeted with ‘gulal’. Hoil is very much associated with Lord Krishna and what can be a better way to celebrate ‘Holi’ other than a dance performance of ‘Kathak’ depicting the ‘Raasleela’ of Lord Krishna. The dance was performed by Pooja Bhatnagar who is an acclaimed kathak dancer and has performed at various musical festivals all over India.

Later we played a memory game of writing in which the winners were Sukhdev Kaur and Gauri Maheswari. In our second game of dancing and then becoming a statue, the winners were Kavita Tolani and Pushpa Sodhani. Our heartiest congratulations to all the winners.

The programme was attended by 54 ladies (38 members and 16 guests). The food was catered by Restaurant Ganesha.
