Assistant Professor
A journalist’s peculiar function is to reach
the mind of the country and to give definite and
fearless expression to the mind. Mahatma Gandhi
Journalism is what keeps check-and-balance
on the democratic practices of a government. It
maintains the democracy in a country and roots
for progressive social changes. Journalism is the
wall that prevents totalitarian rule. In an ideal
world, journalism should do all of these, but
we do not live in an ideal world neither do our
journalists. In recent times, we are witnessing the
downfall of our journalistic practices. It pains me
to see the deteriorating condition of our mainstream
media. To counter this, we need another
form of journalistic practice that can keep checkand-balance
on our main- stream journalism.
Some people say that citizen journalism is an option.
But, we cannot trust citizen journalism as
much as we used to trust mainstream journalism.
Citizen journalism is like citizen doctor, we
will never trust a doctor who is practicing without
05/ VOL - 3 || Issue - 6
training and degree, then how can we trust a journalist
who does not have any idea of what are the
responsibilities journalist has to fulfill and what
are the ethical procedures he /she has to follow before
writing any article or breaking a story. But, we
cannot discard the idea of citizen journalism completely.
The need for citizen journalism came into
existence because of the mainstream media’s lack
of accountability. If you want mouthpiece of the
government and forgotten its roles and responsibilities.
We are in dire need of an option that can
give voice to the voiceless and practice healthy
journalism. I know, I am hoping for something that
isn’t going to happen soon, but what can I say, I
am an optimist who wants to live in an ideal world
where every member of society practices their duty
with utmost honesty. I wish the students of MERI
(Management Education and Research Institute) the
best of luck for their future endeavors and wish to
see them contributing to the betterment of society.

Unachieved dreams of a man
under family pressure
Achieving your dreams and fighting
for your dreams is already a very
hard process. It takes everything
from a person. But it became harder and
caused unbearable pain when you are family
does not support your dreams you need to
be mean but sometimes you cannot be mean
because the people standing against you
are not your enemies but your loved ones.
A new family does not support your
dreams so please called home no more things
like a home. The person starts to suffocate because
family is the most important in a person’s
life. His family has done a lot for him.
So, he chooses to let their go but these unachieved
dreams stuck with him forever. His
heart always cries for those dreams or the life
he imagined. It makes his heart empty that we
all have for once, lose its meaning and charm.
Like the ocean waves rise very high on

full moon days, these feelings of not being able
to achieve his dreams rise on seeing others
living the dream they wanted to live so badly.
His own life does not seem to be like his
own to the person. It feels like they are living
someone other’s life. But we can’t change the
past so we have to accept it. Even the worst
time has the best things, a person should
look for it and a person should always remind
himself that he was not wrong, he chose
what seems more appropriate at that time.
A man should not lose his hope and
he should or I will say I must keep dreaming
and if possible, he should fulfill his
dreams now or in the future. I know life was
not fair to you in this game ‘Life’ but you
should play it with all your heart because being
fair or unfair can only change the result
and snatch your win, not the joy of playing.

Men being a financial support
to their kids dream
By - Kshitiz Gupta
BAJMC/Sem - 2nd
Dad I want this new iPhone’ in response
dad said ok my son. And dad
is earning 20,000 rupees a month but
his son demands a 1,00,000 rupees phone.
This is a situation in middle-class houses
or every house where fathers are fulfilling
all the wishes of their children irrespective
of their financial condition, their wishes.
From a very young age, every child is
always more connected with the mother and
father as well. But soon it changes with the
father. They are not sitting in the same room
where their father was sitting. Being a father
isn’t easy. Father is always the backbone of
running their family but kids won’t understand
their problems. Men have to take care
of their wife, their children, and the education
of their children and lastly, they have
to save for higher studies. Now what’s happening
is that children started taking their fathers
for granted which is not good enough.
Children bring many expenses to the
family budget, and as they grow, so do the
costs. The everyday expenses are easy to remember,
though not always easy to pay. Many
of them are ever-present: we’re very aware
of how much we spend on diapers, clothes,
food, doctor’s bills, more clothes, and so on.
And everything father has to bear. If the father
doesn’t earn so much then helpless he
has to take a loan. Father does so much for
the child that his desire is always left. No one
could imagine how hard it likes to be a father.
Asking the father for money is easy but
becoming a father and taking the expenses
of their family after becoming a father is not.

Man never get retired from his
responsibilities
By - Devangshi Bhattacharjee
BAJMC/Sem - 2nd
Men, an integral part of society. We
talk about women working and
keeping a balance on both sides but
here let’s take a glance from the men’s perspective.
We see that our fathers work day and
night to give us a good life, a good standard
of living always keeping aside his own need
and happiness. That’s where we can say that
means playing the role of the pillar in the family
keeping everything in balance. We see boys
from a young age trying to become independent
and get work so that they no more need
to depend on their parents and can soon earn
money to even help their parents. It’s a dream
of every child to shower their parents with everything
that their parents gave them or more.
Men we see that this society has always
been harsh on them and pushing them to-
wards living a stereotypical life which can
be harmful to them. Considering men as the
main characters many a time gives much pressure
on them. Starting from the very point of
them getting into relationships where they always
have this pressure of being a perfect partner
for their girlfriend, adding here the family
responsibilities after marriage, taking care of
their wife, kids, and parents, and many more.
Not just women but even men never get retired
if their responsibilities. They hold them
for a lifetime, In all the sectors as said, be it
job or family they constantly need to fulfill the
needs and requirements of the society. Even
a man is a human being, they get tired and
worn out, is mentally pressurized, and can be
emotional. Society needs to understand these.

Parenting - paternity leave for
dads
By - Ayushi Gera
BAJMC/Sem - 4th
When we assert that there should be
no discrimination based on gender,
why do men not receive the same
benefits as women when it comes to taking time
off from work or the office to give birth? A new
child is a significant life-changing event. Men
frequently have to decide whether to work or
stay at home during the first few months that
a new infant is at home, regardless of their
family situation. Business executives who still
think that taking paternity leave is a “woman’s
job” have penalized some men for doing so.
Father’s got the chance to take on the position
of primary caretaker during paternity leave,
allowing them to understand and accept the
special challenges that come with it for both
parents. Additionally, it relieves the stress on
new mothers, who frequently believe they are
struggling in secret. Both parenting duty and
a company’s parental leave policies shouldn’t
be exclusive to one gender. Paternity leave
must be included in them. Lack of paternity
leave not only deprives new fathers of the vital
opportunity to bond with their newborn baby,
but it also supports the stereotype that mothers
are primarily responsible for child care and
maintain women’s roles as primary caregivers.
Government workers are entitled to two
weeks off either before or after the birth of a
baby, while employees of private businesses
are not at all entitled to this benefit. The
task of child care falls on both parents. Gender
equality is promoted by paternity leave in
both the professional and personal spheres.

Men and the pressure to be a
financial success
By - Reet Kaur
BAJMC/Sem-2nd
When we hear the word “patriarchy,”
the first thing that comes to
mind is a social issue involving
women. Women, no doubt, face more challenges,
but men are taught since childhood
that they must be financially successful or
else they will be unable to feed their families.
It is always assumed that the man will be
the bread earner of the family and should earn
more than his wife. We can take the example
of the current movie of Varun Dhawan which
is “Jug Jug Jeeyo” where he was told to be
financially successful but was unable to do so.
The movie is a great example for today’s society
to understand. The norms established by
society are extremes for both men and women.
Various reports and studies indicate that
the major cause of anxiety, depression, and
mental stress among men is extremely high expectations
from life. We see many young boys
commit suicide because they failed to achieve
success in school or in finding job opportuni-
ties. This explains to us that boys suffer, but do we
acknowledge their suffering? As we have begun
to recognize women’s suffering. Every young
boy you see is told to work hard and be successful,
but he is not taught how to deal with it.
But we need to understand that men also
have emotions they are also human beings.
On one hand, there are high expectations, and
on the other hand, they can’t honestly explain
what they are going through. This only leads to
a lonely life in which they don’t want to talk to
anyone because everything they feel is judged.
Our society needs to normalize the idea that
men suffer as a result of unrealistic expectations.
Second, the idea that men can become
depressed or anxious as a result of societal
pressures must be addressed by talking to their
friends or partners about their problems and
sharing the burden. Yes, women face far more
than men, but for society to be equal, both must
be respected and cared for as human beings.

Celebrating the untitled heroes
By - Prasneet Kaur
BAJMC/Sem - 2nd
Father’s Day is one of the days we try
to celebrate for all these untitled heroes
of our life he is a hero without
a red cape. The international fathers
are celebrated on the third Sunday of June.
It is said that a father is the first superhero
of a child’s life and that hero is once a
hero always a hero you may have some different
thoughts about your father while growing
up but when the time flies you get to sit
back and think about that moment you might
be able to understand his point his thoughts of
mind at that moment when a child’s see their
father working hard for them working hard to
bring the bread to the table. You get to know
the feeling to be grateful and gratitude or the
free unlimited piggyback ride in childhood.
When a kid is born he/she is a blank canvas
and their partners and the time spend with
them are like the colour and brush it makes
life beautiful and colourful that is why it is
said that children learn from their mother as
well as a father as many people end up appreciating
the mother only there are lots of
things which a father does and it gets unseen
he faces all the difficulties without letting anyone
know about it. When things go out of hand
he is the best person to go to as the one who
tries to teach you all the good manners and
tries to see and bring out the best in you. He
might not be able to tell you what you mean
to him he might not be able to express himself
what he does and wants for you but his
action always speaks louder than his words.

Just Don’t Stereotype!
By - Arpita Chaturvedi
BAJMC/Sem-2nd
“Mard ko dard nahi hota” Sound so
filmy right? Unfortunately, it is not just a
filmy dialogue. We have treated this dialogue
as a reality n that’s how we start stereotyping
the men community (strong community).
Even men don’t dare to express their emotions
just because of the stereotypical comments
and if he dares to do so he got to listen
to these sorts of things like “yrr yeh ladkio
k tarah rona band kr, Ladke rote nahi”.
Guys are always taught that they are
the strongest ones and they have to protect
all the girls out there, respect them, and
don’t make them cry. But they can’t expect
the same thing in return. Man has to hide
their tear just because of the so-called society.
This makes them even stronger than before
but sadly in the wrong manner. Studies
show that hiding one’s emotions can cause
physical stress on your body, and can affect
blood pressure, memory, and self-esteem.
“Ladke ho kr ghar ka kam krte ho”
He is a man who can do anything whatever
he wishes to and that’s their understanding
of the lady wants to work and men want
to do house chores. We always promote
working culture in which women support
them for breaking the stereotype then why
do we discriminate and don’t support men
equally for their wishes, and their desires.
Six pack se nahi bante hain mard,
Na zyada kamaane se bante hain,
Na chillane se,
Na aanshu chupaane se bante hain,
Kisi aur ko thand lagti hai to dil uska bhi sard
hota hai
Ki jisko dard hota hai asal mein, wo hi mard
hota hai

The ‘Ideal Man’ prototype in
indian society
By - Ishita Tyagi
BAJMC/Sem - 4th
Orientation is a social development
and as the jobs and relegated
sets of principles, the obligations
related to every character are generally
scholarly it forces different stressors on the
person. In a heteropatriarchal society like our
own in India, men do influence by having the
best open doors, availabilities to assets, and
organization over dynamic about their lives.
However, we can’t ignore how the weight of
social assumptions and the strain of submitting
to traditionalist standards of conduct are
deliberately and unknowingly positioned in
the mind of an organic ‘man’ right from the
time he is conceived.
Frequently the job of men as defenders,
suppliers, and procreators neglects their
weaknesses as people. This is because men
are viewed to lead from the front, to be intrepid,
and legitimate, and to conquer the shack-
les of close to the home shortcoming. Men
can and need to forfeit and bear the battle for
the upkeep of the family name. Men are much
of the time found to surrender to such cultural
tensions unwittingly and forego their decisions,
lying to their internal existential center
and their potential remaining parts unrealized.
The social assumptions eclipse their cravings
and deprecate their concerns. Issues of emotional
wellness are not straightforwardly examined
and are helpfully disregarded.
The customary meanings of manliness
and character attributes related to it are water-tight
and solid. Men should look and dress
with a particular goal in mind that shows
‘durability’ and ‘declaration’. Any deviation
from the ordinary is independently nomenclature;
men who enjoy individual preparation,
and wear non-regular tones are named metrosexual.

A side “which is not disclosed
yet
By - Ansh Nagpal
BAJMC/Sem-2nd
are considered a strong
and dauntless gender in every
“Men”
manner. We know women’s
empowerment, and we discuss the struggles
of women, and we should respect the female
gender because women still face hardships
in society. But some men are not part
of the patriarchy. That SOME MEN in their
life have faith in themselves and their families
and hope for their future. No complaints but
some demand that is, to be loved by a person
who makes them realize their existence is not
only to serve but also to get served in life. And
wanted their biggest goal which is to have
peace maintained in the family and everyone
should be happy and bonds should be stronger.
Rather than having greed for materialistic
things. And that someone that could tell him to
stop RUNNING, working that hard, being so
harsh on himself.
But nowadays people think boys for the
sake of their vanity don’t have respect for oth-
ers they make connections for their selfish
purpose. Although there are men and boys
too who work for their family, for their ill
mother and study so hard that they could be
a big help to their family in the future. There
are some men too who side-line their wishes
and interests and put their children and wife
first. Work all day long so that if his son puts
his finger on anything, he would be the first
one to buy for him.
There are some sanctions in society that
didn’t give a thought that this type of boy
does exist? Boys do have feelings that they
hide from their family even, as to not make
their family disheartened, but from a very
small age, a boy who learned to sacrifice had
learned half of the dynamics of life. Boys also
have problems that are yet to be discussed,
and emotions and feelings should be respected
and a sense of consideration for those who
started walking on the path of sacrifice.

Unrealistic portray of men in
media industry
By - Khushi Rawat
BAJMC/Sem - 2nd
The media industry does not discriminate
against anyone be it man
or woman. The one with talent
and zeal to work can survive in this industry.
Passion is so important yet there are plenty of
people working on their toes day and night to
survive in this industry. This industry is welcoming
to creative heads in society. As we
talked about it earlier whether men or women
but we can see the high standards made
by the media industry somewhere asserting
so much pressure. If we solely talk about the
man that is how it affects them. There is some
unrealistic portrayal of men in the media industry.
They are always portrayed as strong
leaders who always have to be ready which
somewhere puts so much pressure.
Men in this industry treat accordingly,
Media is responsible for all the high standards
they made for men, for example, it is said
that you are a man don’t behave like a wom-
an which is highly wrong on many levels. We
all are human beings first. Doesn’t mean Man
have to showcase every strong side they are
also weak at some point in time, it is believed
that if you are Man then you better not cry
which is unreal as a human being, We are in a
society where fake feminism and Fake strong
positive portray of men are being promoted.
Unrealistic portray may include hiding their
mental health from society if they are working
in the media industry to play the strong
influential character which gave birth to new
high standards causing them to harm mentally.
Men are also serving in this society they
are part of the society they don’t need to pretend
those unrealistic fake standards made by
another human being to run the business.
The only one who is being too true to
themselves can only be a better asset to society.

Men hiding their emotions
By - Priyanka Arora
BAJMC/Sem-2nd
In our Indian society, there is a lot
of discrimination and stereotype
amongst men and women, especially
when it comes to expressing emotions. From
an early age, men are expected not to reveal
their emotions because it can ruin their masculinity.
Research says that men feel equal emotions
just like a woman. Just because they are
told to hide them, doesn’t mean they don’t
have them. When a man is suffering from a
mental health disease like anxiety or depression,
he prefers being aggressive over crying
just to maintain his masculinity.
Humans can feel and express emotions.
For example- when we are happy, we smile
and when we are sad, we cry. But if these
emotions are ignored, it can lead to different
mental health disorders. Especially for men,
the number of suicides is 3.56 times more
than women’s suicides. The stereotype that
has been created for ages has proven to be
toxic.
Men should learn to express their feelings
whether it is to a close one or a therapist.
They should be honest about their
feelings and this will only become possible
when feelings are accepted. Talking to a
close one or a therapist will help them open
up without any fear of judgment.

Even men do fight and struggle
till the end
By - Devangshi Bhattacharjee
BAJMC/Sem - 2nd
We all are living in a stereotypical
society where being
a boy or a man these days
is exemplified by using casual words like
“toxic” but to understand men one needs to
take a step back and put their feet in their
shoes and understand their behavior, cognition,
and ambition which will surely give a
broader view of what men go through all the
time.
We always talk about our mothers being
a huge support to the family but have
we ever talked about our dad? sometimes
rights. Even men play a key role in the
family and they have a lot of pressure and
struggle to go on with. Even men do suffer
from work-life balance just like women do.
There have been many studies that showed
that men have been struggling a lot but just
don’t like to talk about it openly thinking
that they would be judged based on that giv-
ing out signs of them being weak, a threat
to their “masculinity” and a feeling of being
stigmatized by this society It can be clearly
said that men are getting affecting with that,
they are silently dealing with everything
which does effect. Even now we can see that
men give time to their families, their children,
and other household chores. All of this
creates a huge problem for them. Men have
been working till the end of us. They have
huge pressure on them for sustaining the
whole families because according to the socalled
“society” of our men need to get an
earring for the family even if the female of
the family is not working. This shows that
the patriarchal society we live in is not just
an issue for the female but even it is creating
an enforcing atmosphere for the males of the
family. Men just never get rid of their work
they are constantly working for making sure
that their family sustains a good life.

Since the beginning young men are
frequently educated by guardians,
unknowingly and once in a while
expressly, to conceal their sentiments. It’s
how the ‘large young men don’t cry’ mantra
creates and can be propagated by educators,
companions, society, and well-known media.
Here and there we are getting better at showing
close-to-home acknowledgment to young
men/men. For instance, creating the ability to
appreciate people at their core has become a
trendy expression in schools and working environments
the same. Be that as it may, there
are as yet numerous men who have figured out
how to veil their close-to-home lives. It isn’t
so much that their weakness is missing, it’s
simply all-around stowed away.
Unfortunately, some exploration proposes
young men as youthful as 2yrs old adjust
by concealing their feelings to look for endorsement
from grown-up carers who themselves
battle to deal with their own and their
children’s close home encounters. Young men
develop into men relating genuinely the main
way they know, which is to excuse or dislike
their sentiments, or both.
Men who are generally sincerely pretentious
are positively warm and cherishing
folks. They might have experienced childhood
in caring families and have been educated
to focus well on others. Notwithstanding,
close to home taking care of oneself might
have a particular cut-off point comparable to
being available to communicate pessimistic
feelings. They might overlook their sentiments,
accept it’s significant just to be good
and not harp on negatives, become profoundly
narrow-minded towards feeling miserable,
furious, terrified, and so on, or divert themselves
from their feelings.
Many folks can track down better ways
of figuring out their weakness. Their chance
is to figure out how to acknowledge and share
their considerations and sentiments at their
speed and time. They become more grounded
and their connections improve decisively
when they face their aggravation and make a
superior perspective on their feelings.

MERI MIRROR
Binge with MERI “Samrat Prithviraj”
Critic’s Rating: 3.5/5
21/VOL - 3 || Issue - 6

Story - Samrat Prithviraj Story: Based on
Prithviraj Raso, the film recounts the narrative
of King Prithviraj Chauhan who gave it his all
when he conflicted with Muhammad Ghori to
safeguard his pride and soil from unfamiliar
attack and imprisonment.
Samrat Prithviraj Review: The greatest
aspect of portraying a story in a drawing way
is to establish its vibe from the word goes.
Furthermore, what is better than a sensational
activity grouping for a story that puts the focus
on an equitable hero ruler, Samrat Prithviraj
Chauhan (Akshay Kumar), and his battle to
safeguard his pride, individuals, and soil from
slipping into Muhammad Ghori of Ghazni’s
(Manav Vij) hands. Post that, the story brings
you into the ruler’s excursion as a person, and
what drove him to take on Ghori in the war
zone.
The activity pieces in the film are arranged
and shot well, however considering
that the film fixates on a conflict that affected
our set of experiences, you’d likely expect
more conflict time in this show.
Regarding execution, Akshay Kumar’s
work to plunge profoundly into this noteworthy
person is apparent. He conveys a colossal
load of a lord on his shoulders with
respect and balance. Sonu Sood and Sanjay
Dutt, as Chand Vardai and Kaka Kanha,
separately, add a great deal of weight to the
story as the show unfurls. Sanjay, truth be
told, breaks the deep resonance of the film
at different focuses with humor. Sonu’s personality
as the lord’s die-hard follower is the
one with a great deal of ‘thehrav’ and development,
which sticks out. Manushi Chhillar,
who also won the Miss World event in 2017,
makes a certain and fine presentation in this
film. In a film that rotates around a fighter
lord and the combat zone elements of that
time, she stands her ground and conveys an
exhibition that presents her as a total bundle.

MERI MIRROR
Binge with MERI “Bhool Bhulaiyaa
2”
IMDB Rating – 5.5/10
Story - Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 begins with an
elaborate scene of a baba doing some mumbo-jumbo
to lock a powerful spirit Manjulika
in a room. Post the ritual where Anjulika
(Tabu) is attacked by the ghost, the inhabitants
of the haveli abandon the mansion and
shift elsewhere then we get to see two strangers
Reet and Ruhan cross paths, their journey
leads to an abandoned mansion and a dreaded
spirit who has been trapped for 18 years.
Review – One of the best parts of the
movie is you don’t have to see the first part
of the movie because there is nothing re-used
in the movie neither it’s a continuation of the
first part it’s a new movie. The first half of the
movie is a lot entertaining and engaging in
which it has a good combo of horror and comedy
and has some good jump scary moments.
But talking about the second half so you may
be a little disappointing because the story is
unnecessarily stretched, along with Rajpal
Yadav two more characters the old man and a
lady were cast for comedic element but both of
their performance was wasted. Overall, it has
good cinematography and VFX and the Background
music during the scenes plays it work
as a horror element perfectly. If you guys will
have a lot of expectations so this movie may
disappoint you but if you don’t see it with a
lot of expectations so you will enjoy it. Kartik
was the main lead of the movie though you’ll
like Tabu’s work more in his comparison. In
short, it’s a good family-friendly movie you
guys can go with your family and enjoy it.

Strong emotions are present in all people. Without
feeling, we would not be human. It’s unnatural for
man to hide what he’s feeling, though if taught to do
so, he can learn. Love teaches a man to show what
he is feeling. Love never presupposes that it can be
discerned or felt without expression
