What began as a demonstration of the struggles young people face to perform to the best of their ability soon turned heartrending because of his father’s assurance. She kindly asked her daughter not to put so much pressure on herself. The short clip shows her crying as she talks to her father on the phone.
The father told his daughter to “be happy”.
The text on the video read: “When I called my dad at 2am, he was always there to motivate and support me.” Instead of scolding her or showing any disappointment, her father calmly tried to comfort her. He told her not to judge herself only by her academic results. With tears in her eyes, the girl listened attentively to her father’s words of encouragement.
He said, “It’s not like if you become a doctor, everything will happen, otherwise nothing will happen. There are many good jobs in the world. It’s not like your age is too old. To tu pressure me atak bi mat aana. Mast rah (It’s not like everything depends on becoming a doctor, and if you don’t, nothing will happen. There are great jobs in the world. You’re not too old. So no pressure.” Don’t come down. Be happy.”
He also reminded her that her worth is not determined by a career path and told her not to worry about money or family expectations. He asked her to take a break from studies and rest. He reassures her that she is intelligent and that there are many other options. “Koi paise ki mashikhi nai. I will earn dearly kama lunga, tu chinta mat kar (Money is not a problem. I will earn. Don’t worry),” he told her.
