There is no proper resources or opportunities.
Placements: Placements were very poor for our course. Packages ranged between 3 LPA and 4 LPA. There were no great recruiting companies. The majority of students were unable to get placed. There were no internship opportunities as such. We were told that we would be given good opportunities, but we did not get any of them.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure was very basic with mid-level facilities. Wi-Fi never worked. There were two buildings old and new. We hardly had any classes in the new building. The canteen was always crowded. There were no such facilities. There was a decent library and the classrooms were fine. AC was available but hardly worked in the old building.
Faculty: The only good thing about this college was the faculty. They were encouraging, friendly, supportive, and helped us whenever we needed help. They truly cared for us and taught us well. They had real insights and industry knowledge. The semester exams were also very easy. Anybody could pass them without much difficulty.

It is the best college I have seen.
Placements: Almost 90 percent students are placed, and the remaining 10 percent of students are those who want to start their own business. The people in my batch are also very nice and very helpful.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure of the hostel and the course I chose are very nice. Mess of the college is very hygienic, and the food is delicious. Wi-Fi and the quality of the room are also very nice. I am very happy with this college, and I also recommend taking admission. The canteen is very tasty. The food is fresh, and all the food is healthy.
Faculty: Teachers are very helpful at my college, and their teaching quality and skills are like wow. The paper's difficulty level was moderate. This course makes people start the trend. The course is very helpful, and it teaches a lot of things about the Trend.

It has good supportive exposure with supportive faculty members and decent campus life.
Placements: About 60-70% of students from our college got placements and internships through college support and personal applications. The average package offered ranges from 3-5 LPA. Top recruiting companies for our course are fashion brands, design studios, retail companies, and startups. Many students got internships in fashion styling, merchandising, and content creation. The top roles offered are fashion designer, stylist, merchandiser, and creative intern.
Infrastructure: The college has decent infrastructure. It has well-maintained classrooms, Wi-Fi, library facilities, and practical studios for design-related work. The campus environment is creative and suitable for students interested in fashion and media fields. Hostel facilities are average but manageable with basic amenities.
Faculty: Faculty members are helpful, qualified, and supportive towards students in both practical and theoretical subjects. The teaching quality is good, especially for creative subjects and industry-related projects. The course curriculum is relevant. Practical exposure, assignments, presentations, and workshops help students become industry-ready. Semester exams are moderate in difficulty, and students who attend classes regularly and complete submissions can easily pass. The overall pass percentage is quite good.
Other: I chose this course because of my interest in fashion and creativity. The best part is the practical learning, fashion events, and creative exposure. The campus crowd is good. Many extracurricular activities and workshops are held here.

Satisfied with this college.
Placements: Placement opportunities in my course are moderate, with around 50-60% of students getting internships or project-based work in media and production companies. The average package is basic for freshers, but students gain good practical exposure. Common roles offered included assistant director, editor, cameraman, and production assistant.
Infrastructure: Classroom is with a full soundproof studio, Wi-Fi connection, and a film screening studio also available. The library is also excellent with beautiful books. We also have sufficient editing systems. We also have a canteen with tasty food, drinks, and snacks. We also have a sports day celebration in college to grow students' physical and health education.
Faculty: We have supportive faculty and are friendly in nature with students. I think they make students ready for industrial level. As per my point of view, the exam is not much difficult because teachers are already teaching and ready for students. All the students are also satisfied with their percentage, I guess.
Other: I chose post-production, and the good thing about this course is that it helps me grow as an editor at the film industry level. The editing teacher is good, and in the editing lab, we have editing systems available.

It’s value for money, for those who aren't serious about their future.
Placements: No placement, for maximum courses, it's a film school that focuses on everything except filmmaking. The maximum placement you can get here is with 1 LPA. Also, most probably not in filmmaking, they even advise us to go find work in Mumbai, so don't come here with any expectations.
Infrastructure: The hostel got shut down, and the infrastructure of the institute isn't that great. The food in the hostel was infested with insects, they took 1 year's money and made us leave in the year. The infrastructure of the college is really small, and it's also too old.
Faculty: If I talk about my experience, only my direction teacher is good, and I guess I shouldn't talk about others. The curriculum is also bad. Exams are pointless, I guess, and it's okay for this mid-tier college. Also, the course curriculum isn't relevant. I rate it 4/10 in total.

The current faculty members are good.
Placements: The placements provided are mainly based on commercial shoots. There are not many cinema placement opportunities as such. There are mainly advertisements, product shoots, etc. You can still get an interview experience from this. It's a good place to gain exposure.
Infrastructure: Better equipment is required. Particularly, cameras are used for the completion of the degree. Though overall, as a cinematography student, I feel there were multiple sessions for us to get equipped with studio lighting and gain a bit of practical exposure.Ā 
Faculty: Most of the current teachers are very well versed in their departments. I have received guidance and proper mentorship from the faculty, which has helped me gain knowledge and practical experience in lighting and camera. The faculty has been very encouraging, and I feel I have great insights into the craft of filmmaking because of the faculty.Ā 
Other: The structure is too rigid for studying cinema.Ā
