Munnabhai MBBS

Are Hindi movies unrealistic? Some situations in the movies are difficult to accept but there is no limit to what can happen in real life. Everyday in workplace and TV i see fake people getting applause from others even though everyone knows the person is question is a fraud one. In Delhi Public School, Ranchi which is quite a reputed school in Ranchi there were teachers who taught nothing and knew nothing but still everyone loved them. Students loved him as he was not serious and gave many liberties in class. And his peers had to respect him as he was close to the principal. A friend of mine even went and complained to the principal but nothing was done. Then i got the chance to see some amazing professors at University of Roorkee(now IITR),some worse than school teachers, after lots of discussion with my friends i agreed that in India only those who don't get jobs pursue higher studies and PhD and this explains the poor quality of academicians. But this is not true for small schools only where a teacher pronounces 'canal' as 'channel' or private colleges where simple engineering graduates are teaching. This is true probably for all the professions and everywhere. In Hyderabad recently a fake doctor who got job in a Hospital showing false experience as doctor was caught. In villages illiterates can be fooled and they even agree for surgery at the hands of Pakhandi Babas. On national television(NDTV) Suhel Seth gives powerful remarks and sometimes i am also lured into believing that he will kill Jessica Lal's murders someday or the other. And can the indian multinationals be far behind, in my first job in a respected software company(partly because of its stock market performance) the person who was awarded the most valuable players of the team was the one i never saw working. He was only poking nose into other's job which was presented as if he was helping others because of which he could not do his own work and had to stay late in the night everyday. After that i had the privilege to see a person whose ability to play with words is impeccable. Without knowing anything he speaks confidently about everything and manages to get away with all his lies. Sometimes i think SAI BABA has given some special blessings to him, may be he was Sai Baba in his last life. The fact is some people get more in life than they deserve and the only reason i see behind this is Pichle Janam Ke Punya.
