Actor Tanusree Chakraborty has responded to a medical association’s objection to the film Suryaa, stating that the film does not disrespect any profession.
The medical fraternity has raised concerns over the portrayal of healthcare professionals in the upcoming film Suryaa, claiming that certain scenes could misrepresent the medical profession. In response, actress Tanusree Chakraborty, who plays a key role in the film, clarified that the storyline is fictional and does not intend to tarnish the reputation of doctors or nurses.
Chakraborty emphasized that the film’s narrative focuses on broader social issues and that the characters’ actions are dramatized for cinematic effect. She added that the production team has consulted medical experts to ensure a realistic depiction of medical settings.
The objection was lodged by a prominent medical association, which requested the filmmakers to review specific scenes. While the film’s director has yet to issue a statement, the actress’s comments aim to allay fears among healthcare professionals.
Industry observers note that such disputes are not uncommon in Indian cinema, where creative expression often intersects with professional sensitivities. The film is slated for release later this year, and its producers have indicated a willingness to engage in dialogue with concerned parties.
