I thought it meant that he liked to hang out as Studio 54.

This is Indian English. Club would mean unify. As in joining them into a club, not hitting them over the head with a club.

I used to see ads in an Indian publication in California where men were looking for a “homely” wife. To them, it meant “home-loving,” in other words, not an ugly woman, but somebody who wanted to stay home and keep house for them.

That’s why translators talk about the “Englishes.”
