Lessons from the movie

1. Focus: The movie teaches a strong point on how to maintain focus in any business and you may
not achieve success in a day or a week but if you stay determined or focus in your work you may
achieve your targets. The movie mainly focuses on Stock Market investment or trading. From a
learning perspective, you cannot make money overnight without learning. In order to stay in the
Marathon, you have to prepare and get ready for a long stay in the stock market
trading/investment.

2. Knowledge: The movie also teaches us about the power of knowledge and how It can be used to
benefit our business and earn maximum profits. In the movie Saif was a experienced player and
had the full knowledge on how the stock market functions .The scene in which saif launched
short attack on a stock by spreading false bad news was fair for the entry of a big player teaches
us a real life example of how the stock market functions and how the knowledge of the market
can be used to increase the profits on his investments.

3. Networking: Networking is also a very vital part of every business and this movie teaches us the
importance of how networking and connections are critical to help influence the factors
affecting the business .For example in the movie Shakun (Saif Ali Khan) gets a tip on the Agni
Pharmacy stock getting approval for a diabetes drug. He approaches a large stock owner to sell
his stake, but is unable to convince him. So, Shakun creates a rumor through his political and
media connections that Agni Pharma’s approval is rejected. This succeeds in driving the stock
price down. The stock owner panics and is forced to sell it in to Shakun at a much lower level.

4. Working under pressure: Working under pressure is the basic need of every business. Every
person working should know not to succumb under pressure and should always remain calm
and take decisions knowing all the facts and not take decisions emotionally. The movie teaches
us that An investor or trader should know the exit path i.e. if stuck in a poorly performing stock.
An investor should not buy junk stocks at a higher price. You should not trust anyone in the
stock market including tips providers etc. An investor or trader always gets trapped in the stock
market. You should know how to get out of the trap i.e. you should exit the stock at the right
time with a proper stop loss based on the favorable risk-reward ratio.

5. Hard work: Success does not come in a day it takes years for a person to achieve and to achieve
success a person need to work hard and even in the worst phases of the business should not
give up hope the sectors perform on a rotation basis. The worst performing sectors of today
will become the best performing sectors of tomorrow. For example the pharmacy, healthcare
and insurance sectors are performing exceptionally well in this Covid pandemic whereas the
automobile sector is not at the mark. To be successful in the stock market or share market, an
 investor or trader should passionate about the stock market. The never give up attitude is a
must as it is very difficult to make money in the stock money.

6. Risk management: Risk Management is very important. You can invest or trade with only that
money that you can handle. In the movie, the hero cannot handle big money thus made a
mistake in investment.
