Articles and write-ups from the students of Journalism cover almost all the contemporary issues. Journalism today is at cross roads. Journalists and their professional ethical – legal considerations are being scrutinized on the basis of their ideological interpretations and alienations. Time and again, professionalism is being challenged by ‘Democratic Participatory Medium’ and ‘User Generated Content’ on various social media sites. Views have replaced the news and partisan has replaced the neutrality. At this critical juncture it becomes mandatory for the journalism aspirants to come-up with analytical understanding of the issues. Journalism today is at cross roads.

MAC VOICE is a platform where we train and prepare the future journalists, where ethical and moral values are inculcated. It is an effort to provide a space to the students where they can polish their analytical and journalistic skills. The present issue of MAC VOICE covers vaccination drive, New farm policy and protest, Pandemic, The notions of Love Jihad and several other soft topics related to lifestyle, cinema and a picturesque section. The copy of this issue is in hand to evaluate and judge the hard work of these budding journalists. I appreciate the efforts of the students involved in making this idea of MAC VOICE into reality.

Indian aviation space has witnessed a significant surge in air passenger traffic in recent years. In order to accommodate this growth, AAI has already chalked out plans to expand current capacities of terminals and bays at airports.

  • Nike Launched the 'Bleed Blue' Initiative Six Months Ago, in a Show of Solidarity Towards the Game of Cricket. Now, the Campaign
    Nike launched the 'Bleed Blue' initiative six months ago, in a show of solidarity towards the game of cricket. Now, the campaign has reached culmination with the 'Yards' ad, and after the World Cup win, the 'United by Blue' commercial. A look at what Nike is upto. Nike and cricket go back to almost five years when the brand started seriously focussing on Team India and the game. The 'Traffic Jam' film was among its first advertising attempts on that theme. "Some brands have nothing to do with the sport, and use it only as a great advertising platform. Cricket is a long-term holistic property for us, and the fit is rather natural, with Nike being a sports brand as well," says Sanjay Gangopadhyay, marketing director, Nike India. Six months ago, on September 3, 2010, the 'Just do it' brand kickstarted it's 'Bleed Blue' campaign, which reached its logical conclusion with the end of the ICC Cricket World Cup on April 2, 2011. Bleed Blue stems from the truth that cricket is not just a sport, but more of a religion in India. There is tremendous passion involved in the game, and the campaign hopes to give an expression to that passion. 'Blood, sweat and blue' is the idea that came to JWT India, Nike's agency. While 'blood' and 'sweat' represent the hard work, grit and unwavering determination of the players, 'Blue' is an obvious take on the blue jerseys that Team India sports, and that these jerseys are an aspiration for every gully cricketer in India -- in other words, everyone aspires to be a Sachin Tendulkar or a Virender Sehwag.

  • GAUTAM GAMBHIR Published 28.5.19 a Friend Was Determined To
    GAUTAM GAMBHIR Published 28.5.19 A friend was determined to watch the London Olympics. He saved for a year to be there and savour the mother of all spor�ng ac�ons, the Olympics. We all know the ac�on and the layered drama that sports produce but he speaks about a completely different aspect about those Olympics. A�er having spent more than 20 years of his life watching cricket in India, he swears by the organisa�onal ability of England to host an event of that magnitude. He claims that even in these �mes of terror a�acks and hyper-security measures, London never seemed ruffled. It was always polite and seemingly laidback. My buddy is now off to the UK again to watch the Cricket World Cup. Since the Summer Olympics of 2012, a school in Peshawar has been a�acked, so has the Manchester Arena and lately even a mosque in New Zealand. It is clear. The perpetrators want to widen their strike zones to increase the fear. Hence as I write this preview to this mega cricke�ng event, I want to share that safety of all concerned is paramount for me. Afghanistan, the babies of the cricke�ng world, would know what I mean. For them, cricket provides iden�ty, it gives them a purpose and above all it gives them pride. They will certainly not win this one but their mere presence gives hope to our region. I will be checking their progress very closely. I am not sure if Madame Tussauds, London has a statue of ViratKohli.

  • The Growing Influence of Celebrity Politics in India ERIN WATSON-LYNN SHAUN STAR
    The growing influence of celebrity politics in India ERIN WATSON-LYNN SHAUN STAR From Bollywood to cricket heroes, stars can do much more than simply encourage people to vote. Published 10 May 2019 Celebrities and politics are so closely intertwined in India that entire books have been written about “Bollywood Star Power in Indian Politics”. Whether we are talking about Bollywood superstars, Olympic medallists, or cricketing heroes, there are numerous examples of celebrities using their fame to advance a political agenda. From promoting democracy to advocating for a particular political party, or even running for election, celebrities are a mainstay in Indian elections. In Australia, Priyanka Chopra Jonas is probably more famous for marrying American popstar Nick Jonas than her Bollywood career. Back in India however, the former Miss World is one of Bollywood’s highest paid actresses. On social media she’s followed by 40 million people on Facebook, 35 million on Instagram, and 25 million on Twitter. Earlier this week Chopra Jonas proudly shared with the world a picture of the election ink on her index finger. Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone, Salman Khan and Anushka Sharma all shared similar photos encouraging their collective half a billion social media following to vote. Celebrities encouraging Indians to exercise their democratic right to vote is an important dimension of the 2019 general election. India is a country where 900 million people are eligible to vote, 130 million of them for the first time. But the use of influence on social media to mobilise voters is just one example of the way celebrities play an increasingly important role in Indian politics.

The theme of this year’s report, ‘Rise of the Millennials’, recognizes the ascent of millennial celebrity endorsers to the top of our brand value rankings. India currently has a millennial population of around 400 million and is expected to become the youngest country in the world by 2020 with a median age of 29. India’s millennial population is experiencing high growth in disposable income levels and thus, it is increasingly becoming crucial for companies to add endorsers who can influence this segment of the population. Varun Gupta Managing Director For the first time since inception of our rankings, Shah Rukh Khan has slipped from Duff & Phelps India the number one rank, replaced by Virat Kohli, who has become the primary choice of product brands to engage and attract consumers.
