Our college students get very good experience.

Placements: Around 30 students get placed in our course through the written exam and personal interview. Students of our course learn many things apart from acting.

Infrastructure: Great actors like Shahrukh Khan, Siddharth Malhotra, and many more visited our college to guide students.

Faculty: Faculty members in our college are great, experienced, and knowledgeable. They worked in the industry for a long period. Some of them are still working and teaching. The course curriculum is relevant. Many monologues are given to students and they get shooting experience in inbuilt studios. There are 6 semester exams that are easy to crack because students need to write their perspective of answers.

Other: I chose this course because of my interest in acting. This college is in a film city where many shoots take place. Many events are organised in our college, such as Halloween day for which everyone needs to be like a monster or something, a Bollywood day, and many more.

A full simulation of all the aspects of film making.

Placements: We got internships in Nandini Shreekand, and this is a good opportunity for actors to learn about the process of casting. There is great exposure for filmmakers to understand networking in the film industry. As such there are no guaranteed placements, but frequent masterclasses take place, where accomplished people from the industry share their knowledge, experience and even go on to work with students.

Infrastructure: It is a sprawling campus with friendly faculty members. There is a state of the art equipment for filmmaking aspirants to practice. They provide plenty of opportunities for hands-on training. This is a vocational institute, so all the equipment, labs, etc., are fully functional. Apart from that, there are many opportunities for recreation such as music labs, prayer rooms for meditation, three clean and lively cafeterias and many food stalls. Frequently, events are also organised for the students to showcase their talent in sports, music, dance, etc.

Faculty: Faculty members in the college are well-knowledgeable and experienced. All have assisted or have worked for many years in the industry. They have great accomplishments to their name and are well-experienced. The course curriculum is centred on the overall understanding of the craft and gives students space to discover themselves as artists and technicians.

It is one of the best colleges which offers this kind of course in Mumbai.

Placements: For my course specifically, there is no placement system. But after the degree, if you personally ask the faculty, they will gladly use their industry contacts to help you get a job. Many students do get a job as freshers due to the ample amount of newly budding studios.

Infrastructure: There is no problem with the internet facility here. There is a high-speed internet facility in every classroom. Classrooms are air-conditioned with the control present in close proximity, and tables and chairs are of high quality and cleaned every day. The library is pretty good with a plethora of books, novels, comics and movies to choose from. The canteen is spacious and clean. Food served to the students is very good and a bit expensive, but that is fine as there are a variety of food items.

Faculty: Teachers in our college are highly knowledgeable. Their teaching quality is average. The course curriculum is relevant to a lot of emphasis on practical knowledge, and it makes the students industry-ready.

Other: I have chosen this course because I was always a huge fan of gaming and what to know how they are made. The best thing about this course is its a project-based progress system, and you get to interact and work with a lot of people with different skill sets. Many events and fests are organised at the college. Our college organises fests like Comicon and IGX, where all the students work is displayed, granting a lot of exposure to the students.
