Dr. Chintan Gala is a dentist from Bombay who had cleared his medical entrance exams but couldn’t do his MBBS because of a condition that he developed suddenly before his results were declared. He had developed ankylosing spondylitis, which not only caused him severe pain but threatened to affect his ability to walk. His dream of becoming a doctor ended the day his family doctor broke the news to him. He didn’t know if he would forever lose his mobility or not.
