My Obsession to Journalism




At the very outset, let me emphasize the point that my desire to opt for a career in journalism is not the derivative of the visual media attraction, but rather an obsession to print media viz. Newspaper. It has been a long cherished ambition of mine nurtured with the right manure at the right juncture. Proud to be having the legacy of a journalistic tradition, born to a renowned Malayalam writer and Journalist, Vrindavanam Venugopalan, I didn’t have to think twice on choosing an vocation. My nonchalant determination has in fact no ingeminity, for the decision comes in the wake of my generation after the lucrative BPO and IT industry. My choice has no negations for I am aware of the advantages and merits of Mass Media and its commitment in general. I had to undergo many paths, views finally landing the temperament what a journalist should possess. I am confident of my skills, aptitude and of course do realize my limitations, which for reasons opts me to choose a newspaper job. In these times, when the youth are mostly engaged in nepotic professionalism, hope to see that I can be part of a spectrum of   community aimed at the better aspects of the state, nation irrespective of ethnic diversities and unbiased on expressing views of the common man- Journalism is the only way to voice out.
