Students tend to choose traditional career paths despite the emphasis on pursuing passion in films like "3 Idiots." The Indian Education System, parents, and mass media play significant roles in influencing career choices, often favoring conventional options over passion-driven ones.
Insights
- The film "3 Idiots" promotes following one's passion rather than conventional success-driven career paths, but societal influences like parents, media, and the education system still heavily push individuals towards traditional options.
- Parents' influence on children's career choices, media's impact on societal perceptions, and the prevalence of government job applications despite intense competition all contribute to the persistence of conventional career paths over passion-driven choices in India.
