India's like, "F*** you."
And they don't learn less in India.
They learn just as much, if not more.
They just cram it
into four and a half years.
There's a billion people, like,
"We need doctors. Hurry up.
Study, study, study."
Where did you grow up?
-Mississauga.
-Mississauga. Yeah.
First of all, you can't let out a..
A 'hood "yeah!" It's..
It's Mississauga, you f***ing dummies.
All right?
It's not like..
It's not even like, "Oh, sh*t!"
It's like, "Yeah, Mississauga." It's..
Mississauga, and he's a doctor.
How gangster do you think his life was?
I gotta be honest with you, Sandeep,
it's nothing personal,
but I would never go to you as a doctor.
Um...
I would never go to an Indian guy
that became a doctor,
especially one that was born and raised
in this part of the world. F*** that.
If you were born and raised here,
you had dreams,
and it was never to become a doctor.
Let's be honest.
I'd go to an Indian woman
that became a doctor.
Obviously, not you, 'cause, you know, I..
I have boy parts.
But... I would go to an Indian woman
that became a doctor.
When an Indian woman becomes a doctor,
to be a doctor.
Even her parents are like, "Sweetie,
you don't have to become a doctor.
You can just marry a doctor."
And she's like, "F*** you.
I wanna be a doctor."
I need that kind of determination
from my doctor, you know?
Well, you had dreams when you
were 14 years old, right, Sandeep?
And it wasn't to be a doctor.
That's not what a 14-year-old
dreams about. A 14-year-old...
has dreams that are ridiculous.
That.. That your dream at 14
should never be logical.
you're doing at 14.
I'll tell you what my dream was.
It wasn't to be a comedian.
I didn't even know this job existed.
My dream.. It'll make you feel better
about whatever your dream was.
Here's what I thought I was gonna do
for the rest of my life.
I thought.. Heh. I..
I wanted to be a dancer.
All right. First of all, f*** you.
All right?
Second of all, not a stripper. I was..
I was a break dancer, and I was like,
"Yo, I'm gonna do this sh*t forever."
Not a realistic goal, though.
What was your dream when you were 14,
growing up on the mean streets
of Mississauga, Sandeep?
Now, be honest. Don't make no bullshit up.
-A musician.
-Huh? A musician.
-Did you play any instruments?
-Yes.
Well, good. That's a good start.
I always..
I always have Indian guys yell out sh*t
that they never did.
"I wanted to be in the NBA."
"Did you play basketball?" "Not once.
You know, just..
What instrument did you play?
-Guitar.
