There8217;s a swanky new club coming up on the Goregaon-Malad Link Road in some months. This one8217;s called Club Link, and there8217;s going to be several features including a swimming pool, a health club, a squash court and a cafeteria, in addition to a mini theatre and a cybercafe for members to enjoy. At the foundation laying ceremony held on the premise on Sunday morning, one spotted such stars as Govinda, Jackie Shroff, Amrish Puri and television8217;s hottie Amita Nangia rub shoulders with the other guests invited to join in the revelry. Chairman S P Malhotra, whose brainchild this club is, reserved all his attention for H.H. Sri Sri Sri Ramakrishnananda Saraswathy Swamiji Sankaracharya quite a mouthful, wot? who had been invited to flag off the auspicious beginning. While lovable baldie Amrish Puri was among the first to arrive, with good ol8217; Jaggu dada making an early appearance, for a change even the usually-late Govinda arrived before lunchtime. Not surprisingly, once the stars arrived, most little ones andeven a handful of some embarrassing adults just flocked them for autographs and pictures. Do we suspect Govinda8217;s jaw is still hurting from all the smiling?
