ASIFA CG Meetup 2nd Anniversary event in Mumbai

A big thank you to Ritesh Reddy for sending us this animated, eye-witness report on the 2nd Anniversary Celebration of the ASIFA CG Meetup that took place on the 20th of Jan.

“The long snaky queue outside K.C. College was evidence of Asifa’s regular CG Meetups. The fact that it was the 2nd Anniversary was the icing on the cake. The counter at the entrance handed out feedback forms, raffle tickets and IAD 2006 flyers? Recycling surplus might be a more eco-friendly solution though. The slideshow on the projector displayed pictures of past IAD melas evoking nostalgia and keeping the crowd entertained. The crowds poured in and Bob Dylan decided to give an impromptu rendition. His performance was cut short however by a case of laryngitis.”
