Movies and books are similar in nature.
Once you know it, you will start loving both.
Both require significant investment but offer a low price point.
I recently watched the Indian movie “Jawan,”, which had a budget of Rs. 300 crore.
However, the ticket price was only Rs. 300.
Thus, I relished a 300-crore movie experience for just Rs. 300.
In the 67th Indian National Film Award ceremony (Year 2021), Vice President of India M. Venkaiah Naidu conveyed a profound insight:
“Film is the most cost-effective form of entertainment.”
Likewise, when it comes to books:
The investment lies in the years of experience accrued by the author.
The price of a book can vary, typically around Rs. 300 to Rs. 500 or some more.
Authors invest their lifetimes in crafting a book, and readers can absorb their life’s wisdom in just a matter of 2 or 3 days.
For instance, the book “Think and Grow Rich” by Napoleon Hill, published in 1937 after 29 years of research, can now be read within a mere week.

Hence, we can access a wealth of knowledge and experience at a modest cost and in a short timeframe.
Fortunately, I love them both 😊
