While I appreciate the initiative, I wish more Bollywood stars would focus on education like this instead of just promoting their films. Respect to Sonu for walking the talk.

The numbers are impressive but I wonder how many students will actually read it vs just having it sit on shelves. Hope there's follow-up engagement planned too.
