Wasn't it obvious from the beginning? Their father is a doctor and there's that negative (and often true) stereotype of Indian children being pushed into medicine by their parents. It's so apparent for all three of them.
Puneet made a whole video about why she wanted to go into medicine and discussed her grandpa's botched medical treatment. She probably wrote about that in her personal statement to get into Mayo and now she's doing derm. What a fraud she is.
I always thought Shaman was the one out of the 3 that at least had a true passion for medicine. Like the most out of the 3 of them anyways. Puneet and harman come off more like they’re in it for the perks but since they’re able to get the necessary grades anyways, they can still get by.
In my opinion, all three of them are cut form the same cloth. Shaman is more humble (less braggy than his siblings) and is better at concealing his true desire. I don't think it's a coincidence that he's choosing derm. There's a video of all 3 of them putting derm on a pedestal, praising it specifically for the money and lifestyle. If Shaman was truly interested in medicine, without regard for the perks, it would be unlikely of him to pursue derm. Hell, I would bet Harman would be doing derm if he didn't go to a DO school and actually had a shot at it.
Disclaimer: I think it's perfectly fine to pursue derm for just the $ and lifestyle perks, but the way Puneet and Shaman are pretending to be in it for not those reasons is disingenuous and annoying. They're actors.
