Abstract
This paper mainly aims at finding out the impacts and consequences of binge watching. Social distancing and lockdown due to COVID-19 pandemic substantially impacted individual’s daily habits and well-being. Within such a context, digital technology may provide a welcome source of alternative forms of connection and entertainment. Indeed, streaming services showed a remarkable increase in membership subscriptions throughout the period considered. A total of 315 participants were taken into this study from 8th July to 31st august 2021 through google forms. The study examined the anthropometric, nutritional, dietary as well as the binge-watching factors such as psychological and behavioural using questionnaire research method. The respondents of the study were between 18 to 50 years of age, majority being students and working professionals from southern part of India i.e., from Karnataka state which included 4 districts such as Bangalore, Mysore, Hassan and Hubli. Results showed that majority of the students were addicted towards these online platforms and it has led them to anxiety, stress, depression as well as some behavioural changes resulting in isolation, lagging behind at their academic and work performance. It was clearly seen that respondents were also affected on their food and dietary intake in turn having a drastic effect on their health and life style. Therefore, these findings hold an implication on avoiding the addiction towards tv shows/ series in order to make them lead a healthy life style without any distractions.
