3 min read

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], October 20: Media and communication students at the distinguished Pearl Academy in Mumbai were in for an intellectual treat when Bollywood’s most-known publicist Dale Bhagwagar visited the institution for a Masterclass recently.

Renowned actor-filmmaker Viveck Vaswani is the Dean of the School of Contemporary Media at Pearl Academy. Dale described Vaswani as “a walking-talking encyclopedia on Bollywood,” and said that the students were lucky in having him guide them.

The Masterclass was attended by around 30 students at the Marol, Mumbai branch of the academy, along with more students joining through video conferencing from its Delhi branch.

Dale started out by showing the students a particular news video from YouTube, followed by a brief summary of his journey in the media. During the Masterclass, he touched upon various topics including journalism, PR, event management, advertising, marketing, social media, crisis management and digital marketing, saying that the future of image-building and branding will require a clever mix of marketing and PR spin. “Make no mistake, the future of PR is hybrid,” he declared.

He spoke about the widespread current trends of paid news, fake news, citizen journalism, Moonlighting and The Great Resignation after the work-from-home culture, which has seeped into our lives since the pandemic. The spin doctor also narrated a couple of specific PR case studies and deliberately spilled a few secrets of media manipulation and PR tactics, to enthuse the students from time to time.
