Abstract
Almost all ancient civilizations have had a tradition of storytelling. This oral tradition has sustained the handover of valuable knowledge from generation to generation. The audience, especially the younger ones, used to assimilate diverse forms of articulation and varied opinions through these interactions, and become storytellers in their own walks of life. With the advent of the Internet, modern lifestyles and choice of leisure, exposure of this sort, through books and people, has significantly decreased. Although we receive vast amounts of audio-visual content on a single click, the ease of sharing them as posts, tweets and messages on a digital platform has made the need for reinterpretation and oral transmission obsolete. The penetration of smartphones, in both rural and urban areas, has diminished the need for face to face interactions to such extents that although we are forever connected, we are becoming less social.
