New Delhi: A video of Dr Jasmine Kalsi, surgeon and content creator from Karnal, Haryana, is being discussed on social media. In this, while mentioning the ongoing talks for their marriage, she said that many times after liking the profile, just by looking at their Instagram presence and number of followers, questions are raised about the relationship. According to Jasmine, she makes videos related to medical education and health awareness, but some families view her popularity on social media differently.
Does one change one’s decision after seeing Instagram after liking a relationship?
Dr Jasmine said that these days her family is looking at relationships for marriage. She said in her video that initially boys like family, profile and conversation. After this, when a picture is asked, their parents ask the family to search their name on Instagram.
According to Jasmine, this is where the direction of conversation often changes. According to her, some people expressed concern that the girl is very famous and may face difficulty in adjusting with the family in future. She has shared this as her personal experience.
Why did she say, What am I doing on Instagram?
Jasmine says that there is more medical related content on her social media account than glamour. As a doctor, she shares information on health and patient-related topics.
She raised the question of how an opinion can be formed about a person’s entire personality by looking at her social media profile. According to her, she does not consider herself a celebrity. Some of her videos reach more people on social media, this is a big part of her public identity.
Did 2 lakh followers change the picture of marriage relationships?
Dr Jasmine is said to have more than 2 lakh followers on Instagram. In the video, regarding this popularity, she questioned in a light manner whether after having such a huge following, a girl is looked at differently for marriage.
She also said that people following her on social media are not a part of her life. In real life, her identity is that of a doctor and the daughter of the family. To explain her point, she also mentioned the normal conversations he had with her mother at home.
‘My reach is of Instagram, not of status.’ Why did she say this?
Jasmine said in her video that some people feel that she is out of their reach. On this she clarified that it is not right to link the reach of social media with the actual status of a person.
She also said that the number of followers is not proof of a person’s personality or ability to maintain relationships. She said that Instagram has mainly increased her visibility in her life.
Why do questions arise about a successful and independent woman?
In the video, Jasmine also questioned the society’s thinking regarding successful and self-reliant women. She said that if a woman’s success, independence or popularity makes a man uncomfortable, then it would not be right to consider the woman’s fame alone as the reason.
She talked about the need for a relationship in which both people respect each other’s achievements and independence. After her video, discussion started on social media about women’s success, career, independence and marriage. However, the things Jasmine said are based on her own experience and perspective, so they cannot be applied to every family or every marriage relationship.
