Mass communication worldwide is progressing at a dizzying speed. The state of the art communications hardware, evolving information technology and the internet have completely changed the rules of the game. The communication revolution is upon us, with all the potential of enabling us to close the information gap with more advanced societies, reducing disparities within our country and generating major social change. India’s media ecology indicates that mass media in the world’s second most populous country is truly unique. Unlike in the developed countries of the West, in India, all mass media -print, television, radio, cinema and the internet -have been growing simultaneously and are expected to continue to grow in the foreseeable future. Media sector is on an upward trajectory, making the industry more vibrant. According to Star & Disney India Managing Director K Madhavan “The media and entertainment industry has humongous potential in India and can grow up to four times to USD 100 billion in the next 10 years”. The field seems to be transcending into an unmatched growth and along with it the option of its pursuers to have a dynamic career.
