    I admire the thought process of the guys here!

    A badly made movie flopped and the high risk investment went down the drain. As simple as that.

    But NO!!!!
    Venomously it is because of Modi, his beloved Andh Bhakts, Demonitization, GST, Lockdown (phew!), Gorakshan, unemployment, neglect of MSMEs & Senior Citizens and the drooling Rs 15 lacs!!!

    RIP, Nagesh Sir, I am sure you too are laughing at the analyses!!

    Nowadays people are doing business without doing market survey and likes just they are bullying by some people and investing ... then struggling to get money... nowadays one must first keep his security then additional money should be invested.... and fir retired people it's not their time to business.. they must see their old days security first...

    Of course the above mentioned being a Senior citizen and not getting good interest in the banks for his savings, tried his luck in the film industry. May his soul rest in peace.
    L The Government has ruined the country, is ruining the country and will be ruining the country.

    Dear Dylan you are correct. All the citizens are suffering due to this illogic / unwise / unconstitutional Govt. The only benefitted people are bjp leaders + industrialists and chelas of bjp. Others are facing it hard to meet their requirement. You will be jailed if you raise voice against the Govt. We are running in self declared emergency / dictatorship. Worse days are expected in India. God only can save us.

    @ Dinesh...You said in simple words calling 'a spade a spade! ....without "beating about the bush"—being outspoken about it, truthfully, frankly, and directly, even to the point of being blunt or rude, and even if the subject is hurting all the "Andh Bakths" of Modi the "Lier-Chaiwala"

    Most middle class people and MSMEs businesses including restaurants are bound to wind up creating an avalanche of psychological problems due to creditors hounding the debtors & suicides will exceed CORONA conundrum, already 2300 suicides reported!
    Gst & demo already created 30-40% of job & business loss, realty is in doldrums!

    Guys pray to God for Wisdom. After retirement do not venture into business. 
    Nagesh was a retired bank employee, he could have lived a decent life & could have had a peaceful natural death.
    If you have money there are many people who give you ideas where to Invest etc.
    RIP Nagesh

    RIP
    Yes Rajesh ! You are right . Better take calculated risk after retirement. Think to invest only 25% of your money if you want do something to keep you active. And invest only in your familiar field.

    Agree with you. People who give idea do not do the budgeting and financial viability  

    I was asked to invest for a restaurant (Rs 40 Lakhs) in DK by my close friend. I had hired an agency who does feasibility test, spent Rs.1 Lakh for their work - As per report success rate in that area was less for that investment . I did not invest, informed friend accordingly but I saved Rs 39 lakhs.

    Although the siicide is not the way to solution but Narendra Modi govt has failed India in its hour of need in both economy and people. Unemployment has become the big challenge for the govt. Nearly 14-15 crors already have lost the jobs and more worst to come ahead.
    As India goes for a free fall due to Covid and lockdown, insensitive would be too mild a word to characterise Modi government’s shameful handling of the crisis.
