Hello Aditya Verma,
Yes, you can be a pilot but not a commercial one as DGCA medical will unfit you for this because there is 99% chance of life risk if you are wrong about any single degree or anything in the sky.
I suggest you to do PPL if you want to fly but being a commercial pilot is very difficult for you & can even be dangerous for the passengers.
Hope you will understand that I don't want to misguide you
Please feel free to ask anything.
