The 3rd meet was special for two reasons. One, it was organized at a comic studio. Secondly, because we had a new member with us : Subhayan Purkit. 
It was a stuffy, HOT summer afternoon, but undaunted, us members decided to meet up. Finding our way to the studio was a bit difficult. but once all of us had assembled, it was our usual fun and smiles that filled the atmosphere.

The screening was the major attraction of this meet. We screened Hayao Miazaki's Proco Rosso

Quite an unusual lunch we had. Chips and biscuits in 'buckets' and soda in paper cups. Everybody enjoyed just the same. And just before it all ended for the day, we were given the chance to go through some of the vast manga collections in the studio. Below are a few shots from the day.

We are really grateful to Manojit Chaterjee who was kind enough to lend us his studio for a meet. He and his co-workers were good sport and joined in on the discussions and gave valuable career tips to Aditi and Shubhayan, both of whom were studying animation at the time.
