When bodies decompose..

Where whisky and women

with you forever.

And is now Khambatta's flunky.

You keep the feathers.

l hope this finds you in good health

and the best Scotch by your side.

The Scotch that was brought in

from the back alley of Bombay Velvet.

ln spite of the spectacular glitter that

enters Bombay Velvet from its orand front..

lt's not enough to blind me from

what really ooes on.

The powerhouses of Bombay seem

really happy in paid company and free liauor..

trading lives of

million. of Mill worker...

over an evening of music

an chatter.

And your effos in adding some

much needed olitter to the rot.

PS:
Putting a stitched suit on Johnny

Balrai makes him look oood but..

become one of u..

Hot headed hawk,
