I find some of those statistics a little hard to believe though, given that there are 800,000 active doctors in the USA, that would mean that 304,000 of them are Indian, meaning 1 in 5 Indians living in the USA are doctors.

PS. Was only joking about the taxi drivers,

Films are like caricatures... they tend to pick the most prominent or
the ugliest features which makes it easy to recognise..

You are right about the number of doctors.
The actual figure of practising american physicians of
indian origin is about 6.5% i.e. 1 in 15.
Perphaps the figure of 38 % was for the number of doctorates !!
