Abstract

It is not wrong to say that media cannot exist in isolation. It is a very much part of the society and it has to associate itself with a
society. That is a compulsion for the media existence. Therefore we can say that presence of media in a society effect the societal thinking and actions which further brings the social change in the attitudes of the people. Therefore it is important to measure the impact of media on children as they are the future nation. So this paper first establishes the relation between Media especially the Hindi Films and Indian Society and then studies its impact on children.
