Today, the high sales of popular consumer goods reflect the power of advertising and not the real needs of the society in which they are sold. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

In
this
modern era, individuals are more influenced to buy
products
through various kinds of advertising
instead
of considering their real needs. So, I strongly agree with
this
statement and will discuss it in the forthcoming paragraphs.
Firstly
, advertising leads people to buy various goods through the information available and the way in which the
products
are demonstrated, which captivates consumers into buying unnecessary things.
For example
, Smart T.V. sales have seen the highest growth
due to
the new features, which require only stable internet access to surf the television.

For example
, In India, the renowned Bollywood actors Shahrukh Khan, Ajay Devgan and Akshay Kumar are the brand ambassadors for “Gutkha” known as “Vimal Elaichi” which contains harmful ingredients and are not suitable for youth still many are addicted to it and suffer from

products
which/that are unwanted.
In addition
, digital and social media advertising of the consumer’s items just get pops up in the notification bar, lead leading to buying extra things, and individuals will stop considering their needs as
