Not only books, there can be many things that we can learn from films, that too especially characters in it. Observe the Indian epic movie Sholay character Gabbar Singh here. We can learn the below things from him.
Competitive Analysis
The first thing Gabbar asked Kaalia and his gang, when they came back empty handed from Ram-Garh, was "Kitney aadmi the?". A manager who sought to find out his competition does this. Isn’t it?
Fair HR Practices
"6 goli, aur aadmi teen, bahut nainsaafi hai!" is the dialogue Gabbar said, when he thought that there are only 3 people top be killed and so removed the extra 3 bullets from the gun.

Seeking feedback from staff

Employee Motivation
Gabbar wanted to see Basanthi dancing. But as she felt shy, he motivated her to dance by threatening to kill her love interest Veeru, saying "Bahut yaarana lagta hai."
These are just a few things that we can learn from inspiring persons like Gabbar Singh. That is why, stop falling back of heroes always and love the characters in the film. If your parents say that, studies are important, not films, show them movies like Sholay and characters like Gabbar Singh.
