Mahima has been wronged professionally when she wasn’t given credit for her ideas and not given due recognition and position for her hard work just because she’s a woman. But this is absolutely no excuse for behaving the way she did. First - she’s a doctor. Then comes position, power, etc. If she’s linking her own reputation with Birla hospital- that’s fine. But again - she did wrong by hiding truth about her drunkard husband. In this situation she should have thought like a doctor first because a patients life could have been on the line. Is that in any way more important than reputation, and being a good wife? What about her oath as a doctor? I’m sorry but absolutely nothing is more important than human life and she being a doctor should know that. So though I understand the base of her insecurities- they are in no way excuses for her behaviour. If she wanted power, position and prestige - she could have practised in another hospital and made her own career a success. She could have joined another hospital. Who stopped her?
I know I won't change your mind on how you feel about Mahima.
But all I am saying is it never feels good to be undervalued and under appreciated. Could she have handle herself in better ways, yes.
Birla Hospital is something she put work into as well. I don't think she thought when she was first working at the hospital that her husband would continuously look past her. She may have thought of going elsewhere but how would that have looked to the family? Leaving the family hospital to go work elsewhere? She may had hope that one day she would be valued for her work. But Anand and Harshvardhan say little to her. Abhi is the only one who has valued her expertise hence she has never had any issues with Abhi. There may be disagreements from time to time (example value of music therapy) but medical knowledge and experience Abhi knows Mahima has it in spades against him. Its the same why he sees Anand. He does not differentiate.
In regards to Anand's medicial license. She was riled up over the open fight caused by AG. If the situation had been handled more discreetly at the hospital it would have been a different case. And Harshvardhan and Abhi also tried to fight for Anand's license to be reinstated when they were negotiating for Birla Hospital. So we cannot say Mahima was the only Birla trying to help get Anand's license back. She just showed no remose for what could have happened because it didn't happened. Only Abhi was trying to talk sense to Anand about what he had done.
