Are you that myopic as not to see the advantage of R&D in space tech? Is the international space market not worth 300B/year? Will ISRO not get contracts to launch satellites having the credibility to launch one as far as to mars? Is ISRO not already launching satellites for other countries?

Comparing it to the movie Gravity is sheer ISRO stupidity. Gravity earned nearly a USD Billion over an investment of USD 100 Million. Sandra Bullock the actress earned USD 50 Million for this role. This Mars mission will earn nothing compared to that in fact the USD 100 million just proves the fact that ISRO managed to overcome the complexities of a Mars orbit. Give USD 100 million tax free money to any space company in Europe and they too with the NASA calculations available on the net will manage it.

The most important thing that the mars mission has done is to fire up the imagination of the younger generation.
This has been the primary goal of isro as seen by the reddit Facebook and Twitter account used to connect with people. Isro people answered every single question posted on their Facebook page in great details. Please go through them when you have time. They are very informative. They explained how the orbit change was carried out etc.
Also read pervez hoodbhoy's article on sending Pakistan to mars. It also details future benefits such mission has. Even if everyone interested doesn't become a space scientist, this may lead to future scientists and engineers that may help India on the longer run.
