gymkhana where gym means a sport and khana means a foodies club!
sogymkhanais usually associated with sports patrons who are passionate about their players, cheering team and like minded people who shared a similar view. these guys mingled over scotch, food and their respective families, making them a one united community.
these gentleman/ladies were quite hoity toity in attitude because they were a class apart and were emerging india’s idols in their genre.
