Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], July 31: Mumbai witnessed a remarkable celebration of creativity and collaboration as the 23rd edition of the Polaris Media Fest unfolded on the 26th and 27th of July. Organized by Wilson College’s Bachelor of Arts in Multimedia and Mass Communication (BAMMC) department, this year’s festival not only marked the 25th anniversary of the department but also celebrated the enduring legacy of Polaris as one of the oldest media festivals in the city.
With a reputation that precedes it, Polaris has long been a cornerstone for media students as they embark on a new academic year. The festival is renowned for its cutting-edge programs, interactive workshops, and, of course, its beloved mascot, Polly the purple cow. Inspired by Seth Godin’s marketing classic, “Purple Cow,” Polly embodies the spirit of innovation and distinction that the festival strives to promote.
This year, Polaris welcomed an impressive footfall of hundreds of attendees. The festival’s first day was a testament to its commitment to quality, featuring events such as the Presidential Press Conference, a Short Film showcase, and a Reporting competition. These were judged by an esteemed panel, including notable figures like actor Mushtaq Khan, filmmaker Mohsin Khan, and journalist Rohit Bhatnagar. Their presence underscored the festival’s prestige and provided invaluable insights to the budding media professionals in attendance.
