 ohh! did you saw Akshay kumars "khiladi" ,what an action ! did you see how fast he was driving the car ? and did  you saw in don 3 how sharukh was able to beat dozen of people together so cool!!!!...seriously this are some of the general statements we use in our conversation related to movies but had anyone seen the stuntman behind all this or the VFX effect ..i really don't guess so or maybe we know ..but still we try to follow their footstep.
“You turn on the television, and violence is there. You go to a movie, and violence is there,”. “Reality is distorted. If you live in a fictional world, then the fictional world becomes your reality.”
Heroes are violent, and, as such, are rewarded for their behavior. They become role models for youth. It is "cool" to carry an automatic weapon and use it to knock off the "bad guys."  vulnerable youth who have been victimized may be tempted to use violent means to solve problems as they must have seen in movies ...how a hero takes revenge from his enemies. Unfortunately, there are few, if any, models of nonviolent conflict resolution in the media. Additionally, children who watch televised violence are desensitized to it. They may come to see violence as a fact of life and, over time, lose their ability to empathize with both the victim and the victimizer.

 There are other, new forms of violence to which children and adolescents are exposed to which we are not able to identify directly such as music videos contain interpersonal violence. Still another new source of violent exposure is access to the Internet and video game
 young children will imitate aggressive acts on TV in their play with peers. Before age 4, children are unable to distinguish between fact and fantasy and may view violence as an ordinary occurrence.
