Disclaimer : I am not the man who banged Tamannanightlover
Mumbai cancelled Bangalore done
Posting an FR after a year long. Was scheduled to visit the NM bars from March 1st till 5th March but with the covid scenario suddenly shooting up
chickened out (Basuda vocabulary) at the last moment. But once the DB bug bites there is no respite so arranged a hastened trip to a relatively low infected place which happened to be the garden city of Bangalore. Explored all options online for help on the project and special thanks/shout out to Basuda, OL and a big Shukriya/Namaste to Tamannanightlover for replying to my messages and guiding me with the bars and monetary indulgences.
Was staying in Brigade Road so that my bar hopping is not intervened by the travel time between bars. The moment I entered the first bar I was choked with emotion on missing out the action over the past year. But ultimately on 25th of Feb Jugnu ki payal baji & sanam ki chudi khanki & laila ki kamar latki & I felt that I have already received my first covid vaccine shot.
During the three days stay explored around seven bars there. Will not go into details of how much money I spent and how many I banged (this option was definitely ruled out - covid protocol).
Mainly writing the FR as a Bangalore guide for people who would like to travel to Bangalore for a change (by choice/forcible)
Some noticeable features of the bars in Bangalore are
There is no segregation between SB/DB/OB..the bars here operate on one mode only
The start time is pretty late. If you walk into a bar around 8.30 pm you will be the only patron along with 8-10 girls (the floor gets warmed up post 9.30 wherein the girls will be around 50 in number) and by 1 PM the show is over
The change amount is only in 50 Rs notes
You have to tell the waiter specifically not to unbundle the notes. He will unbundle it purposefully so that you don't have a count of how much you are spending on one dance
Whenever one girl dances, others around the girl gives a shout out every now and then to encourage her in her twists and turns
Flow of money is pretty less in the bar (compared to NM it is a pittance). You can own the bar from 8.30 till 10.30 in a budget of 8-10K
Every bar has different floors/dancing spaces with no interconnecting areas (or common persons). You have to find out which floor the best girls are in and then make your ass comfortable in that floor
Lookwise NM girls are better though you can spot 5 to 8 girls in the crowd who will catch your eyes (and whatever). Most of these catchy girls are from Rajasthan/ Punjab and Delhi. But one thing I enjoyed was that even if the girls are not good looking , 90 percent of them are fabulous dancers (which NM lacks).
Bangalore does not have Bangladeshi girls in the floor. At least I could not locate any (I guess patriotism runs high in the Anna's blood)
The DJ's in most of the bars are co operative and will try to please you with all your choices for max 300-500
The waiters/captains don't keep on pestering you but will demand it once you have paid the bills.
All of the DB's have big dance floors and not like NM where waiters/captains and other girls dictate the dance moves of the girl dancing.
All of the girls are available for pick up (specifically during day time the next day)
The last night was spent in Brigade Dreams (which I found to be the best of the lot with many good looking danseuse in revealing ghagra choli & expert in dance. Gave the DJ one big playlist of 25 songs along with a sizeable tip and specifically instructed him to play the songs non stop (at least he will have to play five non stop for a sizeable tip in the next five non stop) and he happily obliged while I picked the top dancer in the floor (who happened to be a native of Delhi- not far from my place). She will be coming to Delhi in April and have promised me a big private dance show.
Till then Cheers
