Yes, you can join CPL after doing aeronautics. First, you should join with SPL, then you can join CPL or PPL. After all, your choice is good, and also you will be physically fit for joining the pilot course.

Scholar-Level 17
If you are looking for affordable options then study in India, there are world class aviation programs and institutes here. Don't go out looking for cheaper options since the quality of training and infrastructure will be poor, on top of that licensing is not provided. Russia, New Zealand, UK, etc. are good options otherwise but always check with the institute about the license exams.
