Now a days, there is no need to go outside for entertainment. Radio was invented first, and then television. The computer can eventually. Internet is the latest addition to the computer. We have discovered that people can enjoy all kinds of entertainments within four walls of our home. When computer first came into being, it was only used for computation and calculation. Only the big organisation and the government could afford computers. However, with the development of Technology, computers have become easily available and people have started using them for their personal purposes. Since computers have become more sophisticated processors, huge storage and considerable memory, they can be used not only for writing or calculation but also for entertainment. Composing a song,making a movie,and taking a photograph all can be done on computers. Because of the development of ICT, changes have come to the mediums and forms of entertainment. Since songs can be digitised and converted into MP3 format, they can be played on computers. Similarly, we can watch videos and movies on computers. A huge volume of data can be stored on CD or DVD. Watching movie on DVD player without going to the cinema hall is a very common practice nowadays. Internet with faster speed has become easily available for 'fibre optic network'. As a result, people do not have to depend on audio CD or DVD either for listening to music or watching films. On top of it, programmes in different radio and television channels can be directly accessed through the internet. Sometimes but I couldn't programmes are also available on the internet. Hence, bivash can access this programmes according to their convenience.
New forms of entertainment have a word with the development of ICT. Computer game is one of them. Big industries of computer games are established all over the world and the experts of these industries are innovating computer games of various sorts. The extensive popularity of computer games demonstrates its immense success as a new medium of entertainment.

In fact, it should be noted hear that excessive and compulsive use of computer or video games may become so strong that it can easily turn into addiction. That is why people around the world are worried about the negative consequences of compulsive computer or video gaming. Development in ICT played a vital role in the emergence of new forms of entertainment. Once making animation or cartoon films was very difficult. It has become easier for ICT and high-end/super computers. Not only that, innovations done by Creative designers have brought about changes to Graphic works. Digital actors and actresses have been created on computers graphic movies that are no longer dependent on real actors and actresses.
