A Tired Doctor' Open Letter To TN Govt, Vijay & Simbu Goes Viral
By: Tupaki Desk | 6 Jan 2021 9:20 AM GMT
Thalapathy Vijay's Master and Simbu's Eeswaran are all set to hit the cinemas during Sankranthi 2021. Needless to say, the fans of the actors are waiting for a long time now to witness these biggies on the big screen. Ahead of the big releases, the Tamil Nadu government allowed the theatre owners to run the films with 100 percent occupancy after Vijay met the Chief Minister of TN and requested for the same.
On Monday, a junior resident doctor Aravinth Srinivas from JIPMER in Puducherry wrote a condemnatory letter that is pleaded to Thalapathy Vijay, Simbu and the Tamil Nadu government.
In the long letter, the Doctor wrote, "Dear Actor Vijay sir, Silambarasan sir and the respected Govt. of Tamil Nadu. I am tired. We are all tired. Thousands of doctors like me are tired. Health care workers are tired. Police officials are tired. Sanitary workers are tired.
We have worked so hard at the ground level to make sure the damage done is kept to as low as possible amidst an unprecedented pandemic. I am not glorifying our work for I know there is nothing so great about it to the onlooker's eyes. We don't have cameras in front of us. We don't do stunt sequences. We aren't heroes. But we deserve some time to breathe. We don't want to fall prey to someone's selfishness and greed.
The pandemic isn't over and we have people dying till today to the disease. A hundred percent theatre occupancy is a suicide attempt. Rather homicide, for none of the policymakers or the so-called heroes are going to put themselves under the pump, to watch the movie amidst the crowd. This is a blatant barter system, trading lives for money.
Can we please slowly try and concentrate on our lives and make sure we tide through this pandemic peacefully and not reignite the slowly burning out flame, that is still not completely put out? I wanted to make this post scientific and explain why we are still in danger. But that's when I asked myself, "what's the point?"
Yours tiredly
A poor, tired resident doctor." Aravinth Srinivas wrote.
