Answer
Ankit,
Aviation is reliable field, no doubt in that. The nature of pilot job makes little bit harder to be an pilot, however PILOTS ARE AND WILL ALWAYS BE SPECIAL TYPE OF PEOPLE. Being an airline or commercial pilot is challenge, but future looks bright. Aviation field was and will be growing with expontiential growth. However, aviation has lot of tracks. Pilots are only one facet of the field, you have aviation mechanics, you have airplane designers, engineers, aviation specilists, and so on.
It is really up to you to decide what you would like to do in future.
