My favorite comparison now is to look at what the Indian Mars Orbiter Mission cost.

It cost $73 million (according to Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mars_Orbiter_Mission) RRR's budget was $72 million (according to Wikipedia: (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RRR_(film))

Seems a bit crazy with that comparison.

Funnier still was a comparison between Indian Mars Orbital Mission ($73 M) and the budgets for Gravity ($100M), The Martian ($108M), Interstellar ($165M). ISRO (India's space agency) engineers missions to Mars for the price it takes Hollywood to make movies with Mars, space etc.

And all they had to do was have their scientists work 20-hour days!

I have worked there early in my career. Never did I see anyone stay a minute after 5 in office.

I actually felt stagnated and left after an year
