NSUI organises Love Parade 2015 to celebrate the spirit of love on Valentine's Day

By

Apart from worshiping the Damdami Mai at Hindu College’s Virgin Tree, University also witnessed a few other ways of celebrating the Valentines’ Day. National Students’ Union of India, the student representative body of Indian National Congress organized ‘Love Parade 2015’ to celebrate the spirit of love and unity on the eve of Valentine’s Day.

First half of the day on 13th February saw members of NSUI visiting different colleges in North Campus to promote the event and asking students to join the celebration. Love Parade was attended by approximately 500 students from various colleges. NSUI volunteers distributed chocolates and roses to everyone who came to participate. Students and couples came forward to sing songs and give the message of love. 

Parade was followed by a street play by street actors of NSUI who presented a romantic cum political satire on the topic. Mr. Roji. M. John, National President of NSUI was present for the Parade and said, “The Love Parade is an answer to all those forces who try to  to induce negativity among the people in the name of caste, religion, region and even gender. Unfortunately, in the recent past various right wing organizations have taken to hatred, and negative denotation of culture for their personal gains.”

According to the members of NSUI, it’s the love, unity and feeling of brotherhood between one another that has kept our country together as one. The Love Parade also discussed how conversions, ghar wapasi and love jihad are dividing people in the name of religion and also about certain organizations coming out and warning people for celebrating the day of love.

“Groups like RSS try and undertake moral policing to control people in our society. Vishva Hindu Parishad (VHP) has even gone to the extent of stating that rape cases like Nirbhaya Rape Case, are a result of celebrating Valentine ’s Day. We strongly oppose such shameful acts in our society”, Amrish Rajan Pandey, Spokesperson of NSUI told DU Beat.

Similar events were organized by the political party on 13th and 14th February across the country.

By

The panel for discussion included Prof. Anand Kumar (Founding Member – Aam Aadmi Party), Meenakshi Lekhi (Member of Parliament – Bharatiya Janata Party) and Digvijaya Singh (Member of Parliament – Indian National Congress). Shiv Aroor, a correspondent and anchor of Headlines Today, moderated the debate.

Prof. Anand Kumar opened the debate by stating his definition of Acche Din. “Actual meaning of Acche Din is providing everything to everybody and this is a dangerous promise”, he quoted. Kumar also talked about these promises touching the lines of unrealistic realm.

Digvijaya Singh who is also the General Secretary of All India Congress Committee expressed his desire for Acche Din to come soon. He focused on how savings in hands of people foster economic growth and talked about their purchasing power and its parity reduced post the UPA regime.

Interview with Hans Raj alumnus Prabhat Choudhary: Founder, Spice- Bollywood PR agency

By

Some 13 years ago, when Prabhat was eating at Nirulas, one of his favorite food joints at North Campus, University of Delhi, little would’ve he known that he would end up marketing films of Bollywood big shots like Amitabh Bachchan, Aamir Khan and Yash Raj Chopra. Prabhat Choudhary is the founder cum face behind Spice, a Bollywood PR agency responsible for successful marketing of movies like 3 Idiots, Bhaag Milkha Bhaag, Gangs of Wasseypur, Dhoom, Zindagi na Milegi Dobaara and recently released PK. Spice has carved a place for itself in the education curriculum in India with IIM Bangalore formulating a special case study on this film promotion and publicity firm.

Prabhat Choudhary, an English (Honors) graduate from Hans Raj College (Class of 2001) recently got into a conversation with DU Beat. Here are certain excerpts from our conversation with the alumnus of Hans Raj College and DPS, Mathura Road, Delhi:

Iresh: So Prabhat would you like to tell us something about your days in college and Delhi University as a student.

Prabhat: University has had a profound impact on me in many ways. The kind of environment that the University and campus gave is very special. It was not just about learning or the courses you do. It was not only about friends and the people you meet, but was about being in that space. It was relaxed and outside influences did not reach you inside the campus as it was itself the self-sustaining ecosystem.

Cliched things, nukkads and the happening student life will be cherished forever as we have a lot of memories there. Nobody can ever forget the time spent in and around Kamla Nagar Market. In our times, Nirulas was also famous.

Iresh: How did the University culture affect you both personally and professionally?

Prabhat: It gave me some kind of global perspective. University wasn’t immune to what happened at societal or global level. It always had students who have strong social conscious. They read newspapers, social affairs influence them and they have a voice. There is also little bit of political awareness which is missing in students of Bombay or other cities. Delhi is such a city where people voice their opinions and it is important for student community as well to have that kind of approach. This lays foundation for them to be aware citizens of the country and it helps professionally too because prospects are better.

Iresh: On the academic front what is that one thing at DU, which is different from other educational institutions across the country?

Prabhat: There was difference of focus on academics. When you do general courses (not technical or professional courses) like Humanities for simple graduation, one generally tends to take things for granted but in the University, that was not the case. Students took some sort of pride in the course like English Honours and in the marks that they got. This was one difference between Delhi University and other places.

Iresh: While in college, did you ever think about Bollywood or marketing in general?

Prabhat: In DU, people generally don’t think about profession that you will join, or the money you will make. This is something that is not on their horizon and it was neither on mine. Time spent at University was not an intermediary phase or stop gap arrangement. Over there for those three years, I was not desperate to get out of it. Those years were aimless and were like a discovery for us where University was our only destination. So I had never thought of marketing or movies.

Iresh: So what stopped you for pursuing further studies in Delhi and encouraged you to move to Bombay?

Prabhat: I knew if I linger in Delhi or DU, it would be four or five more years. The next step then would have been Law Faculty or Arts Faculty. It was a dangerous thing to do (laughs). Nothing was pre planned but I had to give myself a different environment and a more work-oriented place. Therefore, I didn’t sit for any competitive exams and didn’t study further to prepare for FMS. All I knew was that I had to get out of there and try something in TV because movies were not on my horizon then.

Iresh: Go on and tell something about your journey thereon.

Prabhat: After graduation, I came to Bombay and I started working with Star in 2002-2003. I had not thought of getting into Bollywood Marketing or marketing in general. I was able to discover later that Marketing interests me as an exercise. After a year of working with Star, I wanted to come out of my job because day in and day out, we were doing the same thing. It was one of the temporary feelings where I desired to be ejected out of one system and get into something else.

Before taking my next job, I thought of trying Bollywood Marketing. I had no background in movies, media or PR. I gave it a shot by approaching Yash Raj and for some strange reason they took us on for Hum Tum. That was the first movie we did and hence Spice was born.

Iresh: Tell us something about your operations at Spice?

Prabhat: Spice includes sub projects like Spice Bhasha and Spice One. While Spice Bhasha is about taking movies to small towns and connecting Bollywood to the heartland of India where culture and audience’s mindset is different, Spice One involves handling of largest bouquet of celebrities in India like Aditya Roy Kapur, Sidharth Malhotra and Shraddha Kapoor in terms of imaging and persona.

 

IMG-20190702-WA0014

Iresh: You have worked for both TV and movies. How does marketing differ for both?

Prabhat: There is fundamental difference between the two. While marketing is similar for both, but the difference is the product life. If you are marketing a serial, the average self life ranges from 6 months to 2 years. On the other hand, a movie gives you three weeks at maximum and primarily just three days of the weekend. Therefore, you market to fill those three days and its either you succeed or do not succeed.

Iresh: Do you see publicity or promotional marketing as part of the educational curriculum in India?

Prabhat: It is interesting to note that this has already started, Iresh. IIM Bangalore has formulated a case study on film promotion and publicity efforts of Spice. The is the first time that management gurus have invested in gaining insights in this segment of marketing. The case study highlights the fact that positioning decision and communication strategy not only helps to attract pre-release audience attention but is also used to put a film together and not just sell it.

Iresh: How important is the role of youth when we talk about your business as a PR agency?

Prabhat: It is very important. We have been making this attempt towards the University and other colleges lately. We recognize the fact that primary and flagship consumers are the youth. They give the movie its bread and butter. They are the first audience as they watch it in the opening weekend itself. It is also important what opinion they form because they spread the word. Entertainment and celebrity marketing becoming more relevant slowly and slowly in India and it is and will be driven by the young sector more or less.

Grading system to replace numerical marking in Delhi University

By

University Grants Commission (UGC) has sent out a notification to all the universities across India to adopt semestrisation of courses and espouse grading system for results by dropping the numerical system of marking. The change will be administered from the academic year 2015-16. Direction by UGC also includes introduction of Choice Based Credit System (CBCS) and Credit Framework for Skill Development (CFSD).

The amendment has come out as result of a meeting that was held between the Human Resources and Development Minister Smriti Irani and state education ministers earlier this week.

Delhi University which is already following the system of semester education will now introduce grading system. After getting rid of the Four Year Undergraduate Programme, Delhi University will now gear up for another major shakeup in the college level education.

Grades

Under CBCS, the students will be able to pursue three types of courses – foundation, elective and core. It will be mandatory for students to pursue core subjects every semester and choices will be available to pick electives from a pool of subjects unrelated to their disciplines.

The news of grading system is acquiring mixed response from the University students. A part of the crowd feels that the reform is favourable for the students, as it will provide a pool of subjects to choose as an elective apart from their core subject. The reforms will not only provide wider options of subjects across disciplines to the students but also help them acquire more credits. Coherent mobility across all the institutions will also be ensured.

A professor from Delhi University says, “This is a recipe of disaster for Delhi University. Essentially CBCS is the new form of FYUP, probably in the three year format. As per the UGC diktat this is supposed to start from next academic year which is nearly six months from now. So the time is even less than what was there for FYUP with the administration.”

The UGC will also set up a facilitation cell to extend necessary assistance to the universities in their transition process.
