Message From Editor’s Desk

- Mr. Rahul Kumar,

Assistant Professor

MERI MIRROR

The Department of Journalism

and Mass Communication puts a

strong emphasis on training students

with professional skills in order to

meet the demands of a media world

that is both evolving and changing

constantly. Adequate attention is

paid by qualified faculty members

with industrial experience in audio

video, film/documentary production

and mobile journalism. Our Department

has prepared the students to

extend their professional services in

major media houses in the near

future with a number of media

disciplines including print, electronic,

photography, etc. I am

fully confident that this department

having imparted qualitative

theoretical and professional education

will attain more heights

of success infuture. Our Department

shall strive to achieve academic

excellence, lighting the

Management Education and Research

Institute torch high and

bright.

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

check-and-balance on our mainstream

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 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.

Music a friend in every Problem

MERI MIRROR

Physical and Mental health go hand

in hand

By - Mohit Kumar

BAJMC/Sem - 4th

Everybody loves music.

Many people feel that

music makes life worth

living. We can hear music on

CDs, Radio, and Television,

today’s generation have online

platformslike YouTube, Spotify,

and many other sources

to hear music. Music gives us

pleasure, it can cheer us up, excite

us, or call us. Music can be

of various types Happy, sad, romantic,

pop even sleepy. Music,

like language, is a uniquely human

form of communication.

People listen to jazz, rock, classical,

folk, country, and many

other kinds of music. Music has

always been important to religious

ceremonies. Thus, music

is necessary for all of us.

You can’t just listen to music

once and that’s it. Music is

a friend and a companion.It has

an extraordinary influence over

various things, like letting you

recall that pleasant incident that

happened to you years ago. It’s

an awesome thing, and that’s

why music is regarded as a

friend.

Everyone wants a buddy,

and music is that friend. It can

cheer you up when you’re down

and calm you down when life

gets too crazy. It remains by

your side in both good and bad

times and never abandons you.

Music can help you get through

difficult moments since it can

relate to what you are feeling.

When is music useful, if

you ask?

To muffle the sound of

Screaming parents, noisy

housemates, other music, or

general noise that isn’t wantedWhite

noise or other calming

noises can be useful in these

circumstances because music

can distract the mind and steal

focus in a variety of ways.

Music is seen as a friend

since it is the most ideal and universal

form of expression and it

crosses linguistic, cultural, and

religious boundaries. You can

choose music that will change

your mood or listen to music

that complements it.There is

something to listen to every

day of one’s life, regardless of

mood, circumstance, or place,

thanks to the wide variety of

musical forms and interpretations.

BAJMC/Sem - 4th

“All work and no play

make Jack a dull boy.”

You’ve probably heard before,

that participating in physical

activities can significantly

affect your mental health. According

to the stats published

by, The Faculty of Sport and

Exercise Medicine, UK, a 20-

30% reduction in depression in

adults who participate in physical

activity other than their

daily chores is evident. Limited

research proves that teens and

adults who participate in physical

sports have reduced levels

of anxiety and distress and are

less likely to develop dementia

in the older stages of their lives.

When our body engages

in physical acts, endorphins

are released in our brains

which trigger a positive and

energizing feeling in the body.

Although research is still ongoing,

scientists have found

out that higher endorphin levels

help reduce symptoms of

stress, anxiety, and depression,

improve mood, and accompany

a euphoric outlook on life.

Exercising is a well-known

method for its mood-boosting

effects and role in decreasing

the risks of developing

certain conditions, such as

moodiness, troubled sleep,

addiction, and depression.

The spirit of sports is

teamwork and companionship,

thus contributing to an active

social life, communication

skills, and better social relationships.

The benefits of social

connections are linked to

our mental health. Improved

confidence, higher self-esteem,

ability to trust, and greater

empathy, are motivated when

we have a group of people.

Every aspect of life is

equally important, be it physical,

social, mental, or financial.

In this internet age, the

physical aspect is where people

are most lacking. Who

would want to move around

and get things done themselves

when everything is just a click

away? Despite the psychological

and social benefits of

sports, there are only a handful

of people who realize the

benefits it brings to the table.

MERI MIRROR

Abstract Art and How People

Perceive Differently

By - Ansh Nagpal

BAJMC/Sem - 4th

We always face many

consequences regarding,

making

our body physically noticeable.

Since we are evolving

into Virtuality or in an Online

World, We Somewhere

skipped our living lifestyle. It

was a time when we as kids

eagerly waited to move out

into the Playgrounds, making

ourselves dirty to the fullest,

it was a time when we used to

fight for a bat n Ball or badminton

rackets, the wait, that clock

ticking, that hype for every 6

pm, friends waiting, that fight

before the game starts and after

few hour’s we were ready

to get scolded by our Parents

for playing so long.

But now, the time has

changed, we don’t compare

our bats, we now compare

who’s mobile phone is good

to play, we don’t fight for who

gets to play first, we fight for

the Phone’s charger. Our Parents

still Scream at us but to

move out and play. We grew up

and lost our childhood in that

playground and in that classroom,

our dusty bat and ball

and broken strings of a badminton

racket kept aside for

years and years which no one

wants to play with. That Small

Screen had destroyed the mental

well-being and capacity to

grow physically and snatched

away all the Physical Strength

and Ability to work more.

Although online platforms

have their benefit it had

also have a negative upshot to

them. A few hours of physical

workouts or games would

lead to great results for a living

body and will save you from

health-related problems. If

build ourselves knowing the

hardships around us, we can

create a positive environment

that will benefit others too, and

in my Sense, I think

“If you carry your childhood

with you, you never become

older”.


S

trictly speaking, the word

abstract means to withdraw

something from

something else, so adding this

term to art is defined to simplify

the visual, figures, and

landscape. Abstract art does

not consist of defined visuals

but is a mixture of simplified

visuals, colors, and strokes.

This art uses geometric shapes

and gestural marks which have

no external source or external

visual reality. According

to some artists abstract art is

pure and not always a distinctive

visual required to glow

out creativity or art. Abstract

art mainly shows order, purity,

simplicity, and spirituality.

This concept of abstract art

was mainly invented by the

Greek philosopher Plato who

said that random geometric

shapes, lines, and strokes are

used to describe art, purity,

and love, not always concrete

visuals. Talking of how people

perceive abstract art says that

it shows real-world people in a

simple form of art, seeing the

real world, real nature, and surroundings.

The uniqueness of

abstract art makes it more interesting

that simple lines and

strokes can just influence people’s

thinking and perception.


By - Devangshi Bhattacharjee

BAJMC/Sem - 4th

Due to the freestyle type of

drawing this artwork is given

huge freedom and a vast area

to explore the artwork in their

way and study in depth what

the art says and how the artist

depicted its work in form of

just simple strokes. The visuals

of this art are self-explanatory

to putting that up to words that

how people perceive abstract

art can be difficult but the way

people perceive it highlights

their psychological personality.

Abstract art needs a lot

of cognitive training and the

final results of how a person

can perceive simple strokes

and lines can tell a lot about

that person. It may be meaningless

to a lot of people due

to the way it is made but some

things are better perceived

when having no concrete visuals

because having a concrete

visual will imprint the same

kind of perception to everyone

looking that that art but art like

these need cognitive work and

is consisted to vast meaning.

Healing Your Mind by Pottery And

Needle Work

By - Reet Kaur

BAJMC/Sem - 4th

Every one of us has experienced

situations where

we are unable to convey

our feelings. It occurs occasionally

with friends and family, occasionally

with a partner, and occasionally

just with ourselves. We

experience emotions we didn’t

know we were capable of. Life

becomes difficult when all these

unsaid feelings and thoughts pile

up over time. Each of us must find

a way to handle Art therapy aims

at helping people heal and come

to terms with their circumstances,

through art.

If you’re a creative person, art

therapy may also have a lot of

advantages for you. You’ll take

to art therapy naturally whether

you’re an artist, writer, painter,

interior designer, advertising

professional, marketer, or in any

other creative career because it

uses your creativity to promote

healing.We all have negative stereotypes

about our routines, physical

appearance, and conduct. Art

therapy helps us appreciate and be

kinder to ourselves by assisting us

in realising that who we are and

what we do don’t always have to

be perfect, assisting in the healing

of years of harsh indoctrination

As a result of doctors observing

that people with mental illness

frequently expressed themselves

in drawings and other artworks,

many began to investigate the use

of art as a therapeutic technique.

Since then, art has developed

into an important component of

recovery. There are many simple

activities you can try from the

comfort of your home such as

art journaling, sketching, making

collages, sculpting with clay,

etc. It doesn’t matter what media

you choose. The only thing that

matters is that you feel comfortable

using it Emotional release:

The greatest benefit of art therapy

is giving you a healthy outlet

for expressing and letting go all

your feelings and fears. Complex

emotions such as sadness or anger

sometimes cannot be expressed

with words. When you are unable

to express yourself, but you desire

emotional release, making art

may help you to do it.

Stress relief: Fighting anxiety,

depression or emotional trauma

can be very stressful for you both

mentally and physically. Creating

art can be used to relieve stress

and relax your mind and body.


When we are feeling

stressed, we can

easily throw that

stress from our minds and

can get peace. Do you know

how it is possible? Just by doing

the pottery as well as the

needlework. By doing this we

will not only master the wheel

and handle the needle but also,

will love it just by converging

into them. We can express ourselves

by doing this beautiful

artwork. When our eyes along

with our mind are directed in

the clay and the needlework,

we will get distracted from

our problems especially when

we are in distress. Whatever

we produce helps increase

a feeling of self-worth by doing

these magical artworks.

Pottery is an inimitably

powerful artistic path that can

serve as an intensely valuable

therapeutic modality for

people suffering from mental

health disorders. By merging

physical practice built around

the primal knowledge of touch

with emotional, creative engagement,

pottery can allow

us to awaken our spirit and

activate our natural flexibility.

Pottery provides a new, rich


language to give voice to our

inner self through sculptural

form, allowing us to experiment

with physical media to

discover new paths of communication

with both others

and ourselves. Needlework is

increasingly becoming recognized

as an effective way

to combat depression. The

flow of doing this work helps

in calming the mind and reducing

stress. It is an act that

can release neurotransmitters

By - Ankita Kumari

BAJMC/Sem-4th

that promote joy and well-being

while also reducing stress

hormones, anxiety, brain

plasticity, and most important

strengthening eyesight.

Concluding, it is true

that if we practice the pottery

and the needlework, we will

surely self-discover ourselves

in mental and physical distress

on our healing journeys

at the potter’s wheel and the

eye of the needle with peace.

Idiosyncrasy of Money

MERI MIRROR

Impact on people of public art

By - Saurav Kumar

BAJMC/Sem - 4th

It is very much Vivid that

money is important for

everyone in today’s running

world. There is a famous

saying “Money is nothing

but Money is Everything”

this statement indicates many

things, the worth of money is

considered when one shouldn’t

afford his needs his favorite

product which his heart wants

to buy but his pocket won’t allow

it. Money does give access

to happiness that small paper

can build a dreamy mansion

but the matter of concern is, we

do learn the values, passion to

follow the dream, and tactics of

life, but we don’t have the skill

to earn money we don’t have

a particular classroom where

the psychology of money is to

be taught. The difference remains

the same between the

Poor and the Rich. The Wide

gap wouldn’t be covered when

normal middle-class people or

lower-middle-class people cannot

earn money. They kept on

doing the hard work but for-

get to do the Smart work. The

problem lies in the making and

designing of educational Structures

where the students only

learn the old things that old 5

main subjects which they have

to study and move ahead, but

that’s not how life works basic

knowledge is evident but life

wouldn’t rely only on those 5

subjects. The Basic value to

earn money should be taught

at a very young age when a

student started touching the

higher educational boundaries.

Our rules and norms are so

tight and composed a particular

growth can’t ensure his growth

and figure out his way whether

he wants to earn money in

this current world or grow following

his passion and live a

compassionate life. In the end,

medals and the wall of achievement

won’t decide what will be

your luxurious meal would but

the hardworking done in earning

money will do. Following

passion is good and should be

one of the priorities but earning

a good lively hood for own and

for the family is to be achieved

by one own self or a group of

people.


Art has power to connect

us with anything,

even with

ourselves. Public art can be

anything whether a building,

statue or a painting etc.

What differentiates a public

art with any other art is its

uniqueness of how it portrays

a strong emotion and

alive its surrounding environment.

It is basically

a reflection of how we see

the world, an artist’s response

to our time and place.

Public art can have

a great impact on people.

Some studies have proven

that some cityscapes increase

sadness and disease

related illness. Some can

create positive emotions too

which will eventually force

the public to slow down in

their busy lives. Public art

doesn’t only make the space

look alive, it makes us feel

alive too. Thus it will create

more excitement, eventually

engaging more public

which will also help in

the economic growth. Its


uniqueness creates a cultural

understanding. People living

in that community will

feel a sense of belonging.

Study shows that public

art has improved the

quality of life of people. It

not only improves the attractiveness

of the area but

also reflects the identity

and history of the culture.

the potential to be a fun activity

that can be modified to

have a purpose for all people.

A Preferred Reporting

Items for Systematic Reviews

(PRISMA) search was conducted

using the PubMed database,

eighteen studies met

the inclusion and exclusion

criteria and were outcome

for intervention type, study

design, demographics, and

outcomes. A survey that was

conducted in North America,

South America, Europe, and

Asia. When it was examined,

two reports focused on older

adults and pre-existing medical

conditions. Researchers

used a variety of measures to

assess effectiveness, and regardless

of style, these results

can significantly improve

muscle strength and endurance,

balance,

and other aspects

of functional

fitness

in older adults.

Many of

the researchers

will analyze

the effects

of dance

on mental

health and explore

ways to make the intervention

attractive to all age

groups of both sexes. Fortunately,

adding physical activity

to your life is an effective

method of prevention, control,

and mitigation. any medical

conditions. Studies have

shown that physical activity

has positive effects on depression,

anxiety, dementia,

heart failure, stroke, cognition,

and sleep. The harmful

effects of physical inactivity

and the positive effects of

physical activity suggest that

additional efforts are needed

to promote physical activity

with an emphasis on populations

at high risk of inactivity.

Physical inactivity is

commonly seen in individuals

aged 60 years and older.

Although many older adults

have positive attitudes toward

physical activity and

its benefits, factors such as

the person who recommends

physical activity, the older

adult’s environment, the

cost of activities, and safety

concerns influence their

physical activity behaviour

Binge With MERI “Bholaa”

Binge With MERI

“Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar”

IMDB RATING:- 7.8/10

Story:- Bholaa is a 2023 Indian

Hindi-language action-adventure

film, directed by Ajay Devgn and

jointly produced by Ajay Devgn

FFilms, Reliance Entertainment,

T-Series Films and Dream

Warrior Pictures. It is a remake

By - Harshita Dutta

BAJMC/Sem - 2nd

of the 2019 Tamil film Kaithi and

stars Ajay Devgn in the titular

role alongside Tabu, Deepak

Dobriyal, Sanjay Mishra, Gajraj

Rao and Vineet Kumar while

Amala Paul, Abhishek Bachchan

and Raai Laxmi make special

appearances. The film follows

an ex-convict who battles

criminals while transporting a

truck full of poisoned cops to the

hospital in exchange for meeting

his daughter after ten years of

imprisonment.

Bholaa, by contrast, is mad

from the get-go. Ajay and his

writers (four in total) forfeit any

claim to restraint and then some

more. The film is too masala,

too eager to please; complete

with animals, item numbers and

balletic bike chases through the

night. At times, it resembles a

cross between Mad Max: Fury

Road and K.G.F., neither register

particularly suited for a lean,

emotional story like Kaithi.

After Bachchhan Paandey and

Vikram Vedha, this is another

Hindi remake that goes in for an

overthe-top treatment. It gives

Bholaa a distinct visual identity,

if not much suspense or edge.

The film screams out its

crowd-pleasing credentials, but

will this be enough? “These days,

movies do not work without a

story,” says a character in Kaithi.

The line isn’t repeated in Bholaa,

which is smart. Here is a film that

bets the entire farm on its frills.

IMDb rating - 6.7/10

Indian love comedy Tu Jhoothi

Main Makkaar was released in

2023 and was written by Rahul

Mody and Luv Ranjan. Ranbir

Kapoor and Shraddha Kapoor

play the lead roles in this Luv

Films and T-Series Films production,

which also features Dimple

Kapadia and Anubhav Singh Bassi

in significant supporting parts.

Cast - The main roles were chosen

for Shraddha and Ranbir Kapoor,

marking their debut collaboration.

Boney Kapoor, who is making

his acting debut, and Dimple

Kapadia were cast as Ranbir’s

parents. Additionally, it was the

first Hindi film for actress Monica

Chaudhary and the debut of

stand-up comedian Anubhav

Singh Bassi in the acting world.

In January 2023, Hasleen Kaur

announced that she would be appearing

in the movie.

Plot - Aside from Monica Chaudhary,

who plays Kinchi, and her

friend Shraddha, who plays Tinni,

Ranbir plays Mickey, Dabbas,

a character played by Anubhav

Bassi, who is also engaged to

Monica. Along with their jobs,

the pair also serves as consultants,

offering significant sums

of money to assist individuals

in their romantic relationships.

Tinni comes from a line of certified

public accountants.

When the group travels

to another country for Dabbas’

bachelor party, Mickey falls in

love with Tinni. Tinni’s admission

that she won’t be staying

with Micky’s family following

the wedding, which initially results

in their unsatisfactory marriage,

turns things interesting. In

addition to Monica Chaudhary,

By - Pankaj Negi

BAJMC/Sem-4th

Hasleen Kaur, Boney Kapoor,

and Dimple Kapadia are included.

Performance - While Shraddha

performs a class act, Ranbir is

cool with his wonderful dialogue.

The debut of Anubhav Bassi is

astounding, and Dimple Kapadia

is a joy to see. Aajkal relationship

mein ghusna asaan hai, usmein se

nikalna mushkil is one of the best

lines Ranbir has ever delivered.

Rishta Jodna asaan hai todna

mushkil. Boney Kapoor and the

climax are the movie’s highlights.

Art, a way of Mental piece / 23



“The Art of Peace begins with

you. Work on yourself and your

appointed task in the Art of

Peace. Everyone has a spirit that

can be refined, a body that can

be trained in some manner, a

suitable path to follow. You are

here for no other purpose

than to realize your

inner divinity and manifest

your inner enlightenment.

Foster peace in

your own life and then

apply the Art to all that

you encounter.

One does not need buildings,

money, power, or status

to practice the Art of Peace.

Heaven is right where you are

standing, and that is the place

to train.”
