Marketers cannot market for men and women in the same way. It's not a simple transformation of changing colors, fonts or packaging. Men and women are different biologically, psychologically and socially. There are lots of things that marketers should keep in mind before targeting men. Men believe in purchase for ‘now’. Unlike women who don’t have anything particular in mind but still can shop for hours, men buy what they need in the recent future.

  • Recent Paradigm Shift in Tamil Cinema 1Ms
    The Image Representation of Existential Crisis in life of Women – Recent paradigm shift in Tamil Cinema 1Ms. N. Nazini, 2Mr. A. R. Vimal Raj 1 Assistant Professor & Head, Department of Visual Communication, Sathyabama Institute of Science & Technology, Chennai, Tamilnadu. 2 Assistant Professor, Department of Visual Communication, Sathyabama Institute of Science & Technology, Chennai, Tamilnadu. ABSTRACT: Tamil cinema also referred as Kollywood cinema in Indian film industry had drastically changed its style of portraying women in recent times. The mass consumption of films may change the very idea of treating women in a society. Cinema is like a mirror that reflects our people and life style. The conservative tag that is attached towards female characters is redefined by the audience. Audience accepted female centric films and encouraged the film makers to think about female centric characters. Films played a crucial role in changing our views, thoughts, ideas and values. The one director name that sounds loud in Tamil films for his bold scripts is director K.Balachander like Aval oru thodarkathai were a lower middle class girl struggle to bring up his family and in the movie Arangetram a poor Brahmin daughter take up prostitution job to give good education for her siblings which not only stirred the stereotype portrayal of women in films and also made other directors to think of women centric films. The male dominant film industry in recent times have produced noteworthy women centered films like 36 vayathinillae, Irudhi sutru, Aruvi, Aram, Magalir Mattum and Amma kanakku. The researcher adapted feminist theory to understand the fictional discourse and gender inequality.
