Good afternoon everyone.
According to me, we can't restrict or regulate the violence. Below are few points :-.
Impact on Society: One of the primary concerns is the potential impact on society, especially on impressionable minds, children, and adolescents. Exposure to graphic violence may desensitize individuals and contribute to a culture that tolerates aggression and criminal behavior.
Imitation and Influence: Studies suggest that individuals, especially young people, may imitate behaviors they witness in the media. Excessive violence and criminal activities portrayed in films and on television could potentially lead to increased real-life incidents as viewers emulate what they see.
Desensitization: Continuous exposure to violent and criminal content can desensitize individuals, diminishing their emotional response to such actions. This desensitization may, in turn, lead to a lack of empathy and a diminished understanding of the real-life consequences of violent actions.
Socialization and Norms: Media plays a significant role in shaping societal norms and values. Overexposure to violent content can contribute to the normalization of aggression, leading to a society that is more accepting of violence as a means of conflict resolution.
Psychological Impact: Violent and crime-filled content can have adverse psychological effects on individuals, causing stress, anxiety, and fear. This impact is particularly pronounced in individuals who may have experienced trauma or have a predisposition to mental health issues.
Parental Concerns: Parents often struggle to monitor and control the content their children are exposed to. Restricting violence in media helps alleviate concerns about children being inadvertently exposed to inappropriate material, allowing parents to maintain more control over their children's upbringing.
Alternative Forms of Entertainment: Advocates for restricting violence argue that there are numerous alternative forms of entertainment that do not rely on graphic content. Encouraging the production and consumption of content that is more positive and uplifting can contribute to a healthier societal mindset.
In conclusion, while artistic freedom is crucial, there is a valid argument for placing reasonable restrictions on the portrayal of violence and crimes in films and on television. Balancing creative expression with societal responsibility is essential to ensure that media does not inadvertently contribute to negative social behaviors or harm the well-being of individuals, especially the younger audience.

Some people believe violent movies and games should be banned but I personally believe violent movies and games should be allowed with guidance and warnings for different ages.
For example, a game or a movie normally has age limits, but parents must take care that their children don’t use movies and games that are not approved to use them.

Hello!
My name's Amit.
There is no doubt showing violence in movies is very dangerous but without it movie industries can't survive. Violence is an humans basic nature everyone has did it. Majority of movies are not violence centric movies. Here I'm not talking about extreme violence salping someone is also a violence so this is not possible to ban violence in movies.

Good afternoon everyone.
I am Akash.
I partially agree with the statement.
I have three reasons to substantiate my point.
1) It imparts a negative effect on children's mind. It disturbs the tranquillity. The adolescent is the main phase of an individual's growth. Whatever children observe from their surrounding they try to inculcate in them.
2) Violent crime scene also increases criminal activity in our society. Many criminals have confessed that they were inspired by a particular movie and used the techniques shown in that movie to conduct the crime.
3) Many bad films create stereotypes against women. They show women discrimination, abuse, domestic violence etc. This hampers women empowerment.
So, I conclude children should avoid seeing obscene, violent and criminal scenes in films and on TV. Whereas adults should frequently watch those crimes news and crime films to make themselves aware of the dangers in society. This will help them in being cautious and taking precautionary steps. People should accept good things from films and filter out the negative things.

Yes. I agree my friend's violence and crimes are the main part of the film so that it is not bad but some videos which is related to porn videos and crime-related video or non-sense videos will be banded by the government that will be a good step by our govt.

Not particularly Violence, because self-defence action scenes need Violence (like Avengers & Captain America), but particularly films "GLORIFYING CRIMES, CRIMINALS, SEX, RAPES, PORNOGRAPHY" should be banned because these encourage teenagers to follow same (like shows in AltBalaji), these can make children desperate for sex & crimes, develop fetish in them & can ruin their entire life, filling dirt in their minds when today there is so much around us, child trafficking & assault sites are so much, we need to have an innocence & real-matured ppl to repair this society rather making it worse, today nearly all OTT platforms like Netflix, Amazon, Voot, Zee & Balaji are showing crap but Disney Hotstar & Sony new originals are glorifying awareness & reporting of Crimes, that's good, little change,
Though they are also not fully free of such things as they purchase rights of films showing obscenity to show on channels but at least originals are good, I don't recommend finding them either. I want to be so powerful to stop this all negativity.

Hello everyone, This is Ajay Kumar. A very good evening to all of you.
Today my topic is showing violence and crimes should not be allowed in films and on television.
I think in my point of view, I do not fully agree with this view. Like a coin has two faces it also has a pros and cons:-.
First of all, I want to talk about pros:-.
By showing this type of things it helps to make aware of ourselves when such types of violence or crimes happen in the society or country.
It also helps to know about the damages which will be happening by this violence and crimes.
Now we talk about the cons:
By showing such types of crimes and violence many uneducated people takes idea for doing such types of crimes, which is not a good sign for a country.
It also deviated the youth people in many ways.
At last, I want to say that it should be shown in the television or in the film but upto a certain limit.
Thank you.

Movies are great sources of entertainment but now a days only few movies are good. Most movies have violence, sex content, and terrorism which leads youth mind into dangerous way. Youth or children observe bad thing easily than good one and act in their own way. So violence and crimes should not be allowed in movies.

I think we should watch motivational biographies of great personalities instead of movies contain violence. Through these biographies we can learn that how they struggle in life and get the success.
