The Great Indian Medico Masala

Join doctor-turned-writer-turned-social-activist Dr Kumar Nirbhay as he explores the absurdities and oddities of the Indian medical world.

In The Great Indian Medico Masala, a collection of stories inspired by real-life incidents, the protagonist, Dr Arun, discovers that life in a hospital is anything but routine. His days are packed with encounters so hilarious, heart-warming, and medically bizarre that even your stress might need ‘ventilator support’.

Within these pages, ward rounds morph into stand-up acts, ‘miracle cures’ arrive inside green coconuts, patients gleefully defy medical logic, and families create more complications than laboratory reports ever could.

Meet the octogenarian flying officer who gets a high ‘flirting’ with his doctor, the mysterious midweek-only virus, and the infamous ‘chakkarometre’, an invention designed to measure dizziness with precision.
