Tanha Tanha hai dil
Tanha Tandori nights...
if loving you is wrong...i dont wanna be right........
he he
n to think you thought i was talking about food here!!!!!!!!!!
well i am...........
I still remember that night when a bunch of us decided to be adventurous and go to Karims in Jama Masjid to check out the food...TANDOORI NIGHT!!!!
And a team we were...lol
there was this 65 year old friend of mine...a man with all that a man can require...money...power..and an attitude to match... a totaly self made super rich exporter who having worked all his life started his adoloscence very recently.He had more energy than all of us put together and made sure he displayed it.
the next entry into the zoo was this friend of mine from the british embassy who could be lured anywhere just by the thought of food....n it totally showed....the coolest babe in the world and a true connoisseur of any kind of food...whether it was gol gappas on the road or butter chicken at the pandara.
and then there was this girl...a head turner...with a tendancy to steal hearts...she had already stolen mine n i guess to break it later but at that point things were different and love was in the air....
And then there was me...the king of the pride...or was it the pride of the king???
still trying to figure that one out....he he!!! but either ways it was me.
well the magnificent 4 set out on the escapade amongst discussions of how we were going to treat ourselves on good tandoori food which was fit enought to be served to kings....
In 1913, Haji Karimuddin had Established the Karim Hotel in Gali Kababian, Jama Masjid, Delhi saying, "I want to earn fame and money by serving the royal food to the common man". Allah has 99 names and Karim is one of them. It is because of this very name, Karim is growing day by day...and with patrons like us who would drive down to it all the way to cherish the delicacies served.
It was a winter evening and all of us headed on MISSION DEVOUR in moods that would have sent the german armies a packing we started the radio in my car.....
oooooooooooooo
what was that???
STILL AND SILENCE IN THE BATTLEFIELD!!!!!!!!!
oooooooooooooo
tak tana tana tandoori nights tandoori nights
was god watching us??
was god unwell????
was this his way of talking to us and telling his four children that life was meant to be enjoyed and cherished rather than wasting over trivial issues.........
ooooooooooooooooo
tak tana tana tana tandoori nights
n then HIMESH RESHAMIYA takes over the vocals
tanha tanha hai dil
tanha tandoori nights
if loving you is wrong
i dont wanna be right
*and we were in splits!!!!*
one cant understand the intensity of the moment but for the four of us it was a moment to remember...i guess deaspite wanting to forget as now all 4 are in different zones it is something that will bind us together forever...
lol
we reached and devoured a raan,butter chicken,barra's...you name it and we ate it..ate till we couldnt even walk..rolled back home but we now had discovered something besides the food...
a code word when we wanted to go eat....TANDOORI NIGHTS!!!!!!!
Well...keep wrriting,i love to read your posts always...they have as much spicy as indian food has...
