Here are the excerpts from his interview:
1. Media industry has diversified manifolds with the evolution of online media. How is the industry reacting to it and what lies in the future?
Mr. Anil Kumar: Media is nothing but content. With the evolution of online media and advancement in technology only thing that has changed is the form in which it is delivered now. Earlier forms like newspaper and television were used to deliver content now new media is used which is much more interactive than earlier ones. In India, still both the forms of media, new as well as traditional are used. This is because India is a diversified country which differs in the level of advancement and acceptance of new technology from state to state and region to region. In states like Uttar Pradesh and Bihar, new media is still not that wide spread and television still remains the most consumed media.
