The study of migration occupies an important place in sociology as it deals with specific patterns and social problems associated with the migration. Changes in the physical location of an individual bring changes in the family ties. Disintegration of joint family and emergence of nuclear families permits social mobility easier breaking the knots and obligations of relations and social milieu. According to Hetcher (1966) one of the characteristic features of the development of industrial society is the separation of the individuals from the social roots and cultural cocoon that shaped him. He analyses that migration results internal and external changes at economic, political, religious social and cultural aspects. The present study focuses on the changes that migration made in the life style and consumption patterns of male migrant professionals from Kerala at Doha.
