Hello aspirant!
Answering your question-
As we know that no course or no profession is good or bad.It solely depends on your area of interest.

Advantages of being a Physiotherapist-

If you want to work in a hospital physiotherapy is better
You can set up your own clinic if you have access to good funds
You can become a sports physiotherapist if you are really knowledgeable and have good contacts.

Disadvantages of being a physiotherapist-

If are not able to land in a big hospital. You might have to provide home services and finding such clients is a task in itself. Apart from the usual risks associated with visiting someone's home. Or you might have to tie up with a orthopaedician or you might have to pay brokerage to someone who brings you such patients.

Advantages of being a pharmacist

There are new avenues opening up in where after a PG in Pharmacy you can end up being a business analyst for big MNCs. This is well paying and relatively cushy job. As working in a hospital , you might have to answer some emergency calls.

If you plan to do MBA then b.pharm will save your 6 months and opportunities will be better for pharma grads for e.g you can work for a pharma MNC

If you have good funding you can open your retail or wholesale pharmacy shop.

Disadvantages of being a pharmacist-

Hospital pharmacist job is not well paying.

Pharma sales job (MR) has its own Hassels and is not everyone's cup of tea.

Advantages of both-

Opportunities of working outside india are better. You just have to clear some exams to get your licence to practice as a physiotherapist or a pharmacist
Hope this helps you.
All the best for your future.
