I chose this course because I want to be in the film industry. I want to become an actor. This course helps us to get aware of all the media industries. Be it films or television or even radio. Now, there are even more fields such as Public Relations and Event Management. There is an almost equal number of girls and boys. The faculty have industry experience and are well-spoken. They help us in each and every way possible. The use of presentations and modules is common. The learning process is fun and easy. The examinations are conducted in a semester pattern. There are a total of 6 semesters that are conducted on time. The syllabus covers a wide range of topics such as communication, films, photography, etc.

I have little idea about the internship opportunities offered by the college as I am a first-year student. I do know this, though, that there are various industry people coming in and providing internships to students so that they can have practical experience. Various production houses are always on the lookout for media graduates. Radio stations such as Mirchi come to the college for finding fresh talents.

The college fees are increased every year by 1000-2000 rupees. I am not so sure about this but there is certainly an increase. I paid 18500 rupees. There are scholarships available for the students who need them. The college website provides all the information about the types of scholarships that are available.

Students are mostly from Mumbai itself but there is also a large number of outstation students. The college has OlA fest which is conducted annually in the month of January/February. The biggest fest of BMM department is Polaris. Various celebrities also attend the festival. There is a huge library where students can read and even take the books home. There exists various clubs such as Nature's Club, Readers Club, Film Club where students get to talk and express their opinions about things. The classrooms are big equipped with a blackboard. There are plenty of opportunities for one to get into sports. Every month, one or the other event is held for students to showcase their skills and talents.
