Hi,
First of all, you need to have the passion for reading and writing. Also you need to have a strong command on the language (English or Hindi whichever you choose). Not sure if you have completed XIIth standard or a Graduate. There are under graduate courses available. There are many colleges - Govt & Private universities offering these. Most of them provide internships and job placements.
All the best.

It completely depends on the institution you get in. Government institutes may charge hardly 20,000 per year treating it a professional course. There are places in government institutions where MA in mass communication costs very less + hostel charges, etc. But, in private universities it goes to 80k per year or around. See Amity University, Noida's fees and compare it with GJU Hisar, Haryana.
