Disturbing ....

    I watched one of the episodes on Internet after much was talked about the show...This was regarding Doctors …..Well these days media does anything to garner TRP ratings. The show was going okay until this episode happened...Now it’s talk of the nation. I had so much of respect of the actor who conducted but now I am losing my respect ….well in this modern era nothing can be perfect. If someone wants to be a perfectionist then he will be considered a person who cannot adjust with people. I do agree to some extent what was mentioned in the show may be true …but the overall plot defamed this wonderful profession.

    Every profession is divine..There is a proverb which says “Whatever Job you do that is considered to be God” …according to me these three professions stand apart for so many reasons. They are 1) Teacher 2) Priest 3) Doctor. Often the third one is overlooked because of the money factor. It is true Doctors earn money but how many apprehend what goes into the making and also the day to day stress this profession got to deal. It is the attitude which makes me so frustrated. If a poor person needs medical help then that is explicable …but multi millionaires talking about the consultation charges is definitely not tolerable.

    In India the advantage of celebrities is that they can talk and write anything which can be exposed to public and have a bad influence in the society. There is no such strict law which would punish a person if at all they happen to defame a profession. Celebrities have to be extra careful in what they talk to public. Their star charisma can drive some of the illiterates to blindly follow their on screen demi-god.

   Is Cinema industry very clean? Are politicians not corrupt? Are IT folks always speak truth in their resume? Does lawyer always say truth? I am not here to say Doctors can collect more money? But the amount of Time, money and energy a doctor spends is known only to their spouses.

   After watching the program I was a bit disturbed. It not only broadcasted something non- factual but also has a bad influence which can prevent next generation to get into Medicine field. I was always asked to be quiet and not talk about these. Everyone has some ‘Self-esteem’ and its natural to voice your opinion. I heard the actor gets three crores for an episode and if this is true he should be ashamed on himself. For people who romance a glam doll every six months may definitely not understand the true value of this profession. Most bad thing is he refusing to apologize the doctor community which is so arrogant.

   I got lot of advice from friends asking to be cool .....everyone was saying one thing for sure "You do your job and things will follow automatically".
