Film and Television Institute of India Reviews on Placement, Faculty, Hostel by Students

FTII full time PG acting course is for people who aspire to be actors. The college’s alumnus who has done great is someone whom everyone in India knows. However, FTII is just for learning method acting because the students are called actors here but no actors of the institutes were provided any acting opportunities outside the campus. The campus though organizes many fests in which students have to perform and many known directors from the world of theatre and cinema are invited. FTII promotes Marathi film industry and therefore actors (students) from Maharashtra always had an upper hand. After six months itself I cursed myself that why haven’t I joined National School of Drama in Delhi. I am not saying that FTII only has downside as the acting degree from FTII made me even more confident. You will start valuing your craft while studying here. Some actors started valuing their craft so much that they even turned down some offers citing that the roles were not suited for them. I kept waiting for such an opportunity at the campus but it never came my way.Read Full Review

When I first heard about FTII, I thought it’s just an acting school but when I searching for Mass Communication PG course, I figured out that FTII is one of the best. One needs to be more proactive than ever to be able to clear the course. There are entrance exams for all courses at FTII but luckily Mass Communication just had 2 rounds of interviews. Like many other institutes, FTII has its own specialities but more than anything, student’s passion at FTII was a must watch. Most of the programs offered here are short term courses and our program which was supposed to be a one-year program ended in 10 months itself. What FTII does best is making you aware of the craft in you. We had actors studying in the same college so they needed a good networking and PR and they got it all in the same college itself. The college has deployed courses that can go hand in hand and that is why the mass communication from FTII can definitely be your way to Page 3.Read Full Review
