Doctors bodies oppose Sunny Deol Suryaa teaser

Sunny Deol who is known for his hard hitting action entertainers is starring in a film titled "Suryaa: Ant Se Aarambh Tak",. The makers released the power packed teaser and it resulted in a huge controversy.

Doctors Bodies The Indian Medical Association (IMA) and resident doctors of AIIMS Delhi expressed their opposition strongly for the film generalising violence against doctors. "Doctors are healers, not targets of hatred or violence," the IMA said in a statement. "Every day, thousands of dedicated doctors serve humanity with compassion, commitment and sacrifice, often under extremely challenging circumstances," IMA Finance Secretary Dr Piyush Jain said.

"Glorifying violence against doctors is unacceptable and risks eroding the trust that forms the foundation of the doctor-patient relationship," he said. "Enough of vilifying doctors. Protect those who protect lives," Dr Jain added.

The Resident Doctors Association (RDA) of AIIMS, Delhi in a statement said "Such sensationalised depictions could misguide people and further escalate the already troubling frequency of violence against healthcare workers across the country,". They asked the CBFC, Ministry of Information and Broadcasting and the filmmakers to address their concerns.
