@amrxxer @ACJIndia @PARInetwork That sounds like the best reason to be a journalist!
Thank you so much @amrxxer for taking out the time for this interview. Best wishes from me and everyone at @ACJIndia 🙌

@amrxxer Hi! I'm Ashresh, a student journalist at @ACJIndia and this is a formal request for a Twitter interview about you experience as a media professional. Kindly spare a few minutes to answer my questions, I shall be grateful for the same.

[Ashresh Marupaka @ashreshmarupaka]

@amrxxer @ACJIndia @PARInetwork Sounds like an exciting time to be a journalist! You have answered all my questions eloquently, and to end on a personal note, have you always wanted to be a journalist? If not, what inspired you to take this up as a profession?

[Ashresh Marupaka @ashreshmarupaka]

@amrxxer @ACJIndia @PARInetwork You're right about regional languages, and coming to Hyderabad in this context, do you anticipate a digital resurgence of the local news fraternity? Can we expect a surge in Telugu multimedia content aimed toward the youth in the run for the 2023 Telangana Assembly elections?

[Ashresh Marupaka @ashreshmarupaka]

@amrxxer @ACJIndia With the democratization of social media access, do you see an uptick in reader engagement, especially from the rural areas? I'm asking this as you're associated with @PARInetwork and you're familiar with the reading tastes of the countryside.

[Ashresh Marupaka @ashreshmarupaka]

@amrxxer @ACJIndia That's true. Could you share any challenges you have faced working with newsrooms from home? Has there been any event that caught you by surprise?

[Ashresh Marupaka @ashreshmarupaka]

@amrxxer @ACJIndia That's very kind of you. So what are your broad observations about the media industry since the COVID-19 pandemic hit us? What is the most significant change you’ve witnessed in the way journalists work?
