Actor and politician Kangana Ranaut has expressed her views on the need to 'Indianise' the uniforms worn by nurses in India, which she believes are heavily influenced by British designs. In an interview with ANI in Mumbai, she emphasized that nurses should have more flexibility in their attire, similar to the allowances made for doctors, while still adhering to professional guidelines. Kangana pointed out that the current uniform style remains largely unchanged and does not account for varying weather conditions. She elaborated on how elements like caps, pins, and belts in nursing uniforms reflect historical ties to British traditions and US Navy styles from the World Wars. She suggested that any future changes to nursing uniforms should be based on the preferences and comfort of the nurses themselves, advocating for designs that resonate more with Indian culture. Kangana also mentioned her upcoming film, "Bharat Bhhagya Viddhaata," where she plays a nurse, aiming to portray the profession with dignity and integrity, showcasing the often-overlooked dedication of nursing professionals.
