We live in the modern world, where in the world of literature magic realism exists. Magic realism is the genre enjoyed by several authors. Authors enjoy this genre with a view to utilising their creative freedom to misplace several things for their creative purpose and to create hypothetical characters and events in the story. The present paper focuses on the use of genre, magic realism in Salman Rushdie’s Midnight’s Children. The novel depicts the historic events through the portrayal of personal history of Sinai family; and to represent the story, the author uses magic realism. The protagonist of the story, Saleem Sinai is blessed with magical powers. Other children including Shiva, born at midnight are also blessed with the same magical powers as Saleem is. Salman Rushdie has enjoyed the technique of magic realism through Saleem and other midnight’s children to shape the story.
