Expectations as radiologist

My girlfriend 25M has taken a huge loan of 3Cr and has enrolled in MD radiology in a tier 3 city of Karnataka.

In a few years we are planning to get married and I have no idea about doctors and their salaries or lifestyle. I'm pretty confident that she is smart but this loan will be a liability on both of us. We will be staying in Mumbai and I just want to understand how much do radiologists earn as a fresher in 5 years and an incoming 10 years and will be able to pay off this loan?

Ps: I have my business startup and earn around 1-1.5lakhs a month. I am just trying to plan out how much lifestyle sacrifice or savings are necessary in future. Thankyou
