At the beginning vs In the beginning


At the beginning
Used to refer to the specific point or time when something starts. It focuses on the starting point of an event, story, film, speech, or situation. (शुरुआत में” — किसी चीज़ के आरंभिक बिंदु पर)
At the beginning of the movie, the hero is a child.
At the beginning of the year, we made many plans.
(Tip: “At the beginning” is often followed by “of + noun” (e.g., of the story, of the year))

In the beginning
Used to talk about the early stage or initial period of something — not just a point, but a span of time. It often implies that things later changed. (“शुरुआत में” या “प्रारंभिक समय में” — जब कुछ नया शुरू हुआ था, लेकिन आगे चलकर कुछ बदल गया।)
In the beginning, I didn’t like the city, but now I love it.
In the beginning, they were good friends.
