I feel it is an indicator of a much serious issue.
TV serials, are some of the most viewed program. Most of these serials have topics such as Treachery, extra marital affairs,Jealousy
as the central theme. The Mother in law daughter in law fight is most
preferred subject in these serials. Once a serial start it almost never
ends(5–7 years).
Why these serials dominate over the rest?
A
program is made keeping in mind that it meet the expectation of the
audience. House wives are the target group of all these serials. In
Kerala and in many other states demand of a sensor board for serials is
there.
India was ranked 118th in The World Happiness Report 2016,
published by the Sustainable Development Solutions Network (SDSN), a
global initiative of the United Nations . This ranks 156 countries by
their happiness levels.
India’s rank in previous years
2014-111
2015-117
Denmark
takes the top spot; India among group of 10 countries witnessing the
biggest happiness declines, along with Venezuela, Saudi Arabia, Egypt,
Yemen and Botswana. To understand the gravity check the ranks of some
other countries.
Somalia(76)
China(83)
Pakistan(92)
Iran(105)
Palestinian Territories(108)
Bangladesh(110)
- WHO reports that 20% of Indian population will be suffering from at least one mental-health problem by 2020.
By
the most conservative estimates, at least 5% of the population lives
with a mental illness, Which translates to 5 crore people. These numbers
have a close bearing with the rate of suicides, cardiovascular health
and several days of productivity lost.
I feel all these are connected. Our likes and dislikes determine what we are.
