Indian media, both print and electronic, disseminates messages which are not always positive. Objectification of women is a major by-product of advertisements to promote the sales of products but it also constructs and promotes a negative perception of women in Indian society. In today’s hyper globalized world, the mass media has appeared as a compelling and persuasive tool. Most of the people admit that they are not affected by advertisements and product promotions but a significant number of individuals especially children and youth are influenced by the glamourized and utopian world created by it. The effects of mass media are quick and wide which easily appeals and sweeps the masses in its fold and thus conveys the inherent misogyny of the thought and ideology embedded in the promotion and representations carried by it. This paper, therefore, tries to unravel the negative and stereotyped images of women through media and its consequences for women as well as society. In this pursuit analytical methods have been employed to understand data, facts, and information that are already published or the information available in the form of books, journals, or Magazines already available. The research explores important questions that i. How Indian media plays a key role in constructing a negative portrayal of women? and ii. How are women affected by the negative portrayal of them by the Indian Media? The secondary sources of data used for this particular study include books, journals, magazines, periodicals, and online websites. Italics have been used for Hindi words.
