Why is India least happy?

First, despite being one of the fastest growing economies, India remains a non-egalitarian country, with burgeoning levels of economic inequality. An Oxfam survey in 2017 has revealed that India’s richest 1 per cent has cornered almost 73 per cent of the total wealth created in the country.

Second, India’s public health spending is well below the global average (just 1.4 per cent of GDP), leaving the deprived millions to pitiable public healthcare facilities. Oddly enough, even the well-off Indian professional class, who can afford expensive private healthcare, are not guaranteed a long, healthy and happy life. The shocking case of the early fading physicians in Kerala, the so-called most socially advanced State in India, signifies how scary the emerging situation is.

A 2017 study conducted by the Indian Medical Association revealed that the average life expectancy of a Malayalee modern-medicine doctor is just 61.7 years, almost 13 years less than the State average.

Third, without doubt, India has failed in building a trustworthy social support system, helping people when they are in real trouble. An atrocious incident was recently reported from Uttar Pradesh, where a team of patrolling policemen lets two teenage victims of an accident bleed to death as they “didn’t want blood to stain their car seats”. A perfect example of how little people can trust the state machinery.

Fourth, it is proved over and over again that India’s political system and business establishments are unable to manage big cash flows in a sustainable, responsible and transparent way. Corrupt and fraudulent practices still hold the key as exemplified in the Nirav Modi episode and similar occurrences. No further explanations are necessary as to why India’s rank dropped in the latest global corruption perceptions index.

Perception of corruption is higher in Pakistan that's a negative

Only pointers Pakistan scoring better is generosity and social support.

India has higher gdp, health life expectancy, freedom to make choices.

Are these the individual vairables contributinh towards the final happiness score? In that case compare Sri Lanka and Pakistan variables.

I'm very sad now , for no apparent reason. I envy those cheerful people.

That was what the tweet was about lmfao? He made Bollywood famous! There was no reach except him. And yes he promoted in those circles and SUCCEEDED too. At one point he was the be all and end all of Bolly's reach outside India. He's synonymous with Bolly for most outside India. He catered to that market. Not his problem nobody else had the brains to promote Bolly outside India and find an audience there. For most foreigners he's synonymous with Bolly.

And SRK the most known face in the world is a big deal. Because as you say tons of Bolly actors have come and gone,praytell why they couldn't crack that code he did. That's literally the point. Shah broke that barrier. He made Bolly famous. Nobody before him could beat Tom before Shah even though as you say the entire South Asian film loving population is triple that of West.

As if Tom Cruise is the barometer of superstar dom lol...

SRK is a massive star not denying that but to equate him with Bollywood is stretching too far just cos u and few other NRIs worship him doesn't make him bigger then the industry he represents... In fact Bollywood made him not the other way around. Bollywood has successfully existed before him and will continue to do so. Yes he is shrewd and intelligent enough to make himself a big brand and kudos to him for that.. But he is nothing without Bollywood.
