| Abstract | Rapid industrialization, urbanization, globalization, and technological advancement have brought profound transformations to Indian cities. Urban spaces have emerged as centers of economic growth, cultural interaction, and social change, while simultaneously confronting challenges such as migration, social inequality, housing shortages, informal employment, and shifting family structures. This research paper examines the portrayal of Indian urban society from a sociological perspective, with particular emphasis on its representation in literature, cinema, media, and academic discourse. The study explores key dimensions of urban life, including social diversity, class stratification, gender roles, cultural variation, and the dynamic interaction between tradition and modernity. Through selected examples, it highlights how urban experiences are constructed, interpreted, and at times distorted in different forms of representation. Adopting a qualitative and analytical approach, the research draws upon sociological theories and secondary sources to analyze how population dynamics and social structures shape urban life and cultural processes. The paper argues that portrayals of urban society not only reflect social realities but also actively influence public perceptions and understanding of urban life. By examining the gap between lived experiences and their representations, this study offers deeper insights into the complexities and evolving nature of contemporary Indian urban society. |
