So remember how last year it seemed like there was practically a launch-a-minute? This year the recession has hit the Mumbai party circuit big-time and as party perennial Kishen Mulchandani puts it, In the midst of all this recession business launches are no way daring.

whatcha looking at? Socialite Kishen Mulchandani. |
The other problem appears to be that "the right celebrity crowd isn't showing up only the B grade TV-types, so what's the point?"
In fact Kishen (in prime drama queen form) went on to say "now-a-days if you call any of the so-called party regulars before you say hello they ask 'where are you taking me, what party?' I told them, no more freebies, it's over." Such a pity.
So now that the glitterati are left to fend for themselves, here's a sneak peak at what the "Page 3" crowd is up to on their own this weekend...
Gary Lawyer is meeting friends on Saturday night; Anu Dewan has dinner with her friends on Saturday as well and plans to spend her entire Sunday with her daughter.
Archana Vijaya is getting the weekend off after ages, "So I'm gonna head to the spa for a complete pampering session followed by food and wine with my mates.
Also, I have to go for my friends white wedding on Sunday so the party continues!"
Anish Trivedi is taking the weekend off in Alibaug to start writing his book. Meanwhile Gul Panag has taken to "Tweeting" her random thoughts and whereabouts via Twitter. Follow her on @gulpanag.
PS: On Sunday the posh plan to enjoy some dinner theatre at Blue Frog with Mahesh Datani's long-running production Dance like a Man.
Lilette Dubey (who's produced and directed it, will be there) and so will it's cast including Vijay Crishna, Joy Sengupta and Suchitra Pillai.
