Abstract

During the lockdown that was imposed due to the spread of Covid-19, people turned to media for entertainment purposes. Some studies even reported the time people spent per day on media increased tremendously during this period. However, all genres of media do not equally impose their influence on the consumers. So, studying genre-specific media 
becomes essential as it allows us to understand in-depth the influence each genre of media has on individuals. The present study focuses on the romance-oriented-media and its influence on relationship satisfaction and self-esteem. The study was carried out on 485 Indian students whose relationship satisfaction and self-esteem were assessed using Rosenberg's self-esteem scale and Hendrick’s relationship assessment scale. The results 
showed a negative correlation of romance-oriented-media with relationship satisfaction and self-esteem. The result also showed a positive correlation between self-esteem and relationship satisfaction.
