What movies or TV series have you watched more than 5 times?

Manjhi (the Mountain Man) is such a inspiring true love story of an Indian laborer from Gehlaur village. When his wife died after being injured from falling from a mountain and due to the same mountain blocking easy access to a nearby hospital in time.

He decided to carve a path through a ridge of hills using only a hammer and a chisel. After 22 years of work, Dashrath shortened travel between the Atri and Wazirganj blocks of Gaya district.

He travelled to New Delhi to get recognition of his work and was rewarded by then Chief Minister of Bihar, Indian Post issued a postage stamp featuring Manjhi.

    This is inspiring!

    You won’t believe — I was thinking about this man 2-3 days ago.

    I had this idea that he was regular in digging the mountain daily.
    He doesn’t required much thinking.
    He acted physically on a daily basis.
    And we got the result!

    Compare to that most of government exams aspirants fall in daydreaming, overthinking, and fear of failure. Their productivity decreases.
    But, then, CSE is much challenging too.
