With huge unemployment rates and not a lot of job prospects there are huge percentages of the Indian population with nothing better to do than drink or get high.

Hmmm.

People at the bottom of the ladder who are unemployed, poor or generally downtrodden, turn to drugs and alcohol to escape reality. But then the people at the top of the ladder, those who are wildly successful, rich, and famous, turn also to drugs and alcohol - for kicks.

Guess it's the middle area, the folks trying to make it, who just say no.
