A couple of ladies nights give tonite what it really doesn't need - even more allure. EDM, live bands, desi, retro and more make it a bona fide Friday night already.
AF and The Park beckon the intellectually-oriented crowds, dance and theatre enliven the evenings, and carnivals, mango festivals and couture remind you it's summer.
From vermicomposting, bonsai, lingerie and basket-weaving to the more conventional theatre and photography, an array of workshop themes enable you to enhance your skills, knowledge and memories this week.
A theatre workshop and a play for stage lovers, a Canadian education fair for students, a carnival at RFC for kids and a general day out at Ravindra Bharathi for the culturati make it an all-weather calendar today.
Geo-political lectures, foreign education workshops and economic themes in even movies make it a day with a fair share of the cerebral. Fortunately, though, the city knows which side its bread is buttered on.
A ladies night at Cuba Libre is an early indicator of what's on the horizon, but the predominant here and now of tonite is rock, retro and a smattering of Karaoke.
We bring to you a selection of just-once-in-the-week specials at various star restaurants in town - featuring dessert specials, women's lunches, dim sum exclusives and live music.
A Telugu play at Ravindra Bharathi is a worthy reward for emerging alive at the end of a hot day, but if heat is pish tosh for you, there's plenty of shopping, food and art specials right through the day.
It's a Monday night, and you'd like to destress but not be reminded of any particularly good times that look like they'll take eons to come back again. The clubs know what we are talking about - viz. rock and retro, and not EDM, salsa or after-parties.
On the drollest of Mondays, you can still depend on Ravindra Bharathi, and there's two pieces of good news - Ravindra Bharathi indeed has a special, and it's not a droll Monday. Which means there's a lot more good news!
Celebrations of feminism, the earth and the iPhone stud the galleries this week, and the woodcut print display and the Kala Bhavan faculty members' works gain further traction. And if you cheer green, you'll love it at AF.
A Bollywood ladies night, a Bollywood Karaoke, a Bollywood Sundown party... you get the general theme for tonite. (It's "fun", in case you answered something else.)
