Medicine—the best laughter

Kishore Shah
Abstract:
How do they depict a doctor in Hindi films or TV serials? He is either a grave-faced, bespectacled, didactic person somberly announcing that either the mother or the child will survive, but not both, or he is a buffoon who is acted out by Johnny Lever, or some other comedian with outlandish mannerisms and remedies.
