Jamshed Desai also saw Baba during this visit, as did Alamai Katrak. Rustom brought a new Pontiac and drove Baba in it to see a film ( Shanghai ) at the Plaza Cinema in Dadar.
Mansari was in Bombay at this time and Baba permitted her to cable her brother Minoo and his fiancée Bapai in Navsari, who immediately came to Bombay to meet him. It had been four and a half years since they had seen Baba, and Baba lovingly spent two and a half hours with them on the night of 13 July from 9 until 11:30, and again for half an hour the following morning at 7:00 A.M., before Baba departed.
Leaving Bombay, Baba arrived in Meherabad via Nasik on 15 July 1936 and stayed for two weeks, arranging matters for the move. Baba would go to a movie at Sarosh Talkies with a few of the mandali at least once a week. On the 18th of July he saw a musical comedy, Strike Me Pink , with Eddie Cantor and Ethel Merman, that he liked very much.
During this period, once Sarosh and his wife Viloo came to Meherabad to see Baba. Sarosh had married Viloo with Baba's permission, but she had no faith in Baba's divinity. Nonetheless, Baba liked her and privately assured Sarosh that she would eventually come to love him.
The couple had been married for almost ten years but still had no children. When they visited Meherabad at this time, Baba was sitting with the mandali and was in such an exceptionally good mood that he remarked that he would give a present to each man. To one he gave a simple handkerchief, to Padri a motorcycle, to Rustom a horse.
Baba then turned to Sarosh and gestured, "I have given you a gift already."
At the time, Viloo did not know she was pregnant, but she soon found out and later bore a son. Thereafter, they had two daughters. Nonetheless, Viloo still lacked faith in Baba. She would occasionally accompany Sarosh to see Baba and respected him as a Master but, in her naÏveté, she thought that Meher Baba did not have anything to do with things "that happen naturally," though Sarosh continually stressed that they were in fact Baba's blessings.
Padri subscribed to the Illustrated Weekly of India , and he was complaining on 26 July, about the non-delivery of an issue. Baba opined that what is past is past and one should not cry over spilt milk.
