Heritage and classy with an English charm, The Bengal Club celebrated their first Christmas Eve party on their lawns with warm and Christmassy vibes. The club lawn was decorated with a red-and-white canopy and the entrance was adorned with lights, Christmas garlands and of course the Christmas tree. As the night grew young, members of the club came pouring in with their friends, families and guests to celebrate the eve together. Blue Mist went up on stage at 9.30pm and performed a number of ’70s and ’80s hits with some new Hollywood chartbusters which made the guests join the dance floor. The menu for the evening comprised mouth-watering snacks which the guests sinfully indulged in and kept ordering. As the clock struck 12, the band and all the members of The Bengal Club welcomed Christmas Day by greeting and wishing each other with happy faces.
The band for the evening, Blue Mist, rocked the show with Dancing Queen, Red Red Wine, Sway, Last Christmas, Daddy Cool along with some new chartbusters like Cheap Thrills, Taki Taki, Waka Waka. “It’s good to be back at The Bengal Club again and performing for them. We will be performing some retro, reggae and new songs, starting from the ’70s and also some Christmas songs to add to tonight’s mood,” said Team Blue Mist.
As Blue Mist performed their hits, the evergreen members of the club took to the dance floor and enjoyed together and as they said in unison, “raat jawan mast sama”. Narayani Babli Nag (in red and black) showed some amazing twist moves on the floor.

That cool tie and those cool moves! #welove
Mutton Tikkia Kebab was the most ordered dish by the guests. Purple Rain, an Xmas special, made with vodka, Blue Curacao, grenadine was topped with lemonade and served in an old-fashioned glass.
“For organising such a big event as a maiden venture credit goes to the entertainment committee and the food committee for presenting curated and delectable cuisine to match the occasion. The Telegraph always plays a big role in supporting us,” said Kunal Sen, club president.
“I’ve come down to Kolkata from London after four-and- half years to meet my family members here at The Bengal Club. I’m loving the ambience here and all the songs which we heard growing up are being performed,” said Preeta Goshal.
