Media has a profound influence on shaping gender roles and identity, acting as both a mirror of societal norms and a tool for socialization. From early childhood, individuals are exposed to various forms of media, which convey implicit and explicit messages about what is considered appropriate behavior for men and women. These messages affect perceptions of gender, expectations, and even self-concept, reinforcing or challenging traditional stereotypes. Communication and media studies have consistently highlighted that media is not a passive reflection of society; rather, it actively participates in the construction of gender norms and identities. One of the most visible ways media shapes gender roles is through television and films. In mainstream cinema, women are often portrayed in limited and stereotypical roles. For instance, in many Bollywood films, female characters are frequently cast as homemakers, love interests, or objects of desire, whereas male characters are shown as decisive, dominant, and career-focused. Hollywood movies have similarly contributed to gendered archetypes; action films often feature men as heroes and women as secondary characters needing protection.
