My fav moment from #Kohrra is when WazirPatar's 'Tere Baad' plays in the background of a wedding, simultaneously fitting the arcs of multiple characters.
That 45-sec sequence is a masterclass in editing, blending music & visuals to create emotion. Too good🤌

So basically with TCS you pay tax thrice and get hit 4 times.

1. While earning income. Pay TDS at 30% + cess

2. While buying anything. Pay IGST+CGST if in India or Pay local VAT applicable if paying abroad. 18%+ minimum

3. Pay Forex conversion charges : 2.5%+

4. Pay 20% TCS

So if spending ₹100k, you pay govt 70k and get back 20 later.

Need 170k in bank to spend 100k🫨🤦🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️

Just wow.

Whenever you get a CT scan or an MRI, please also take the case in a CD apart from the films. It gets lot easier to give second opinions.

@Dr_SwatiSonal @aiims_newdelhi Congratulations!

FSRH Guidlines say that EC providers should advise women that the available evidence suggests that oral EC administered after ovulation is ineffective.

TIL: Morning After Emergency Contraceptives (Levonorgestrel and Ulipristal) are ineffective after ovulation. 🤯

[Mehak Arora @MehakArora259]

Example: For someone who had unprotected inter course, on the 18th day of her cycle, these would be not recommended. Instead, IUDs would be the method of choice for EC.

Comfort is a drug. Once you get used to it, it becomes addicting. Give a weak person consistent stimulation, good food and cheap entertainment they will forget about their ambitions. Comfort is a place where dreams die!

“The increased adoption of pre-prints results in faster identification of erroneous articles compared to the traditional peer-review process.”

[Manraj Singh Sra @ManrajSra]

Our analysis of the retracted COVID-19 papers shows that pre-prints are retracted significantly faster than peer-reviewed articles. @RetractionWatch https://t.co/ZuUgAbR6hU

Relaxation in med school = wasting time to an extent that it guilts you into studying again 🙃
