Need help picking speakers for my living room, ₹15K budget, totally clueless

Hey everyone, I've just bought a TV and have no idea about home audio. I'm hoping you can point me in the right direction.

I want something for my hall, mostly for OTT (Netflix, Hotstar etc.), some cricket, and music from my phone. The TV is a 55", the room is roughly 15 x 25 ft, and my budget is ₹15K max.

I only knew Sony, JBL and Bose, but a friend who's into audio basically laughed at those and told me to look at Sonodyne, Norge and Jamo. When I checked, Sonodyne's soundbars start well above my budget, Norge seems to be mostly amps, and Jamo is way out of my range. So now I'm confused about what to actually buy.

Few things I'm trying to understand:

Is a soundbar always bad for music, or is it fine at this budget?

If I go with stereo speakers, how do I hook them up to the TV without lip-sync problems?

Are Sony and JBL really that bad, or is my friend just being picky?

Any advice is appreciated, even a simple "buy this, skip that" helps. Thanks!
