Thudarum is not a film—it’s a checklist of Mohanlal's well applauded emotions stitched into a box-office-safe, glossy package. Watchable, yes. Memorable, not quite. Script and music takes the backseat. Rating: 6/10 #Thudarum #Mohanlal #MalayalamCinema #FilmReview #Mollywood

I once told my colleague—loudly, so the OP crowd could hear—"The day I get relieved from casualty, I won't drive home. I'll just run home as fast as I can." No one blinked. No one cared. It's just ₹5, right? Who needs to care for what I say..!!! #KeralaHealth #PublicHealthcare

The worst tragedy of public healthcare is that the moment you stop being accessible to convenience, you are accused of arrogance. The moment you protect systems, you are seen as obstructing them. People demand unlawful convenience that looks like service, always. #PublicHealth

When leadership is granted by degree, not ability, systems rot from the top. Competence without credentials is ignored. Titles speak louder than talent. In medicine, merit is too often just a certificate. #MedicalHierarchy #MeritVsDegree #HealthcareReform #RealLeadership

In healthcare in IND, leadership is not earned—it is inherited by degree. Formal training in management means nothing. Titles lead, not talent. Systems fail when leadership is awarded by default, not design. #HealthcareLeadership #MeritMatters #MedicalSystemFlaws #TeamManagement

Thrilled to announce my third translated work, Silent Journeys (based on Benyamin’s Nishabda Sancharangal), is being published by Penguin Random House India. In stores from June 9. #Translation #IndianLiterature #Benyamin Penguin India

Six days a month, I teach ACLS/BLS at AT&ELC — a brief escape from the casualty’s intellectual erosion. For a moment, I lead, teach, and breathe — unsupervised by the most myopically bureaucratic minds called "unit-chiefs". #MedicalEducation #HospitalLife #HealthcareBureaucracy

I am honoured by the invitation of the government of India to lead an all-party delegation to five key capitals, to present our nation’s point of view on recent events. When national interest is involved, and my services are required, I will not be found wanting. Jai Hind! 🇮🇳

My author copies of Silent Journeys arrived today — my name on a book from the iconic Penguin Random House. No MA, no PhD, just passion. Literature, unlike some professions, honours merit over paper. Thank you Penguin, Mr Benyamin, Ms Mukherjee. Humbled. Grateful.

Deeply saddened by the news of the tragic air crash at Ahemedabad, India. My heart goes out to the bereaved familes. May the Almighty give the families strength to bear this loss. #AhemdabadPlaneCrash

I critique systems, not people. My fight is against inefficiency, not against the underprivileged. Reform is not cruelty; it’s compassion with spine. #misuseofhealthcare #publichealthkerala

Mourning the passing of former Chief Minister V.S. Achuthanandan (here, releasing my book "The Elephant, the Tiger & the Cellphone" in Kerala, 2008). A giant of Kerala's Communist movement, "VS" rose from humble origins to become a hugely popular mass leader and Chief Minister

Would love to bring this argument to The Hindu's editorial readers. The need to move Kayakalp from paint to patient care is urgent. theweek.in/news/health/20… #PublicHealth #MedicalReform

Happy about the draw #TeamIndia. Ravindrasinh jadeja Washington Sundar Shubman Gill and K L Rahul played fantastic knocks to pull India back from a catastrophe. Looking forward to the series decider starting July 31 #INDvsENGTest BCCI
