About Copyrights Club

Started by a group of Mass Media students of the Mumbai University with zeal to be different and stand out from their contemporaries. It all began as a medium of expression of thoughts and ideas- to tell the world what we feel- to portray our opinions. The Club is an initiative to provide a platform to media students and professionals and make their voice heard in today’s world. It’s all about using the power of Media and making our presence felt in the society.
