I am putting this in as an official post, so people don't have to go through multiple threads. This thread will be constantly updated with any new details if they become available. Please check this post once before leaving.
Here are the important details:

If required, after the meetup at Candies, we can move to Big Nasty (as someone suggested) or a nearby watering hole or even have dinner at 5 Spice nearby. This can be mutually decided at Candies.
Get your umbrellas / raincoats. Mumbai folks usually need to battle the rains every year for the Global Reddit Meetup.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here are answers to some important questions which you might have.
There is no specific agenda and it will be an informal meetup so you are free to talk whatever you want.
If you have your own vehicle, please check the Google maps link for directions.
If you are coming by train, get down at Bandra station (it is on the western line), get out on the west side (towards platform number 1), stand in queue for the auto outside the station (should not take more than 5 minutes in the queue), ask him to take you to Candies at Pali Naka, if he doesn't know Candies, just ask him to take you to Pali Naka and once you are there ask anyone for Candies. The autorickshaw fare should not be more than 20-25 rupees.
You can call me on to co-ordinate.
There is no upper or lower age limit. You are most welcome to join us. The meetup is hosted at a neutral location so everyone can participate.
Not necessary. You don't have to inform your username to others if you don't wish to.
Each person pays for whatever they eat or services they use. Ideally, per person costs should not hit more than Rs. 1000.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PS: If you want some motivation in meeting random strangers from the internet, here are some pictures from the previous meetup[3].

South Mumbai wont be convenient for a lot. Sticking to Bandra is an ideal suggestion. Also a lot depends on the time we meet.
If we meet post 9 then we can hit some pubs/ Lounge. Copa in juhu is a great place when it comes to good music, Great food & its not too heavy on the pockets & I can manage to get reservations for all of us.
Big nasty In bandra another place where great music and awesome drinks scene.
If we are not up for pubs / lounge we can also hit powai for some paintball action and elbo room Powai later on.
Those are my thoughts.

How does Jugheads in Khar sound?
It's kind of centrally located. Really close to the train station.
You get some decent food there and alcohol isn't expensive either.
They also have happy hours from 12pm-8pm on weekends.

Malls make a good meetup point
Phoenix Kurla, Rcity Ghatkopar have huge food courts where we can lounge and eat all day, pubs and arcades are minutes away
Paintball is fun too though i've heard smash is ridiculously overpriced
I can bring a mafia-like game too which should keep a group of 10 entertained for hours
Anything post afternoon works fine

We can definitely meet early around 6ish & hang around as the evening progresses. People going to work can also join around this time.
Copa is 1 place I suggest. 1st round of beer or whatever you drink on me.
