What did embarrass Sachin in the bus?
Advertisements
उत्तर
Sometimes Sachin had to travel home from Shivaji Park by bus. In the crowded buses, it was a challenge to stand with his kitbag. The conductors were often rude and would inevitably complain that Sachin was taking the place of two passengers and even asked him to buy a ticket for two. As he never had extra money it embarrassed him. His dirty clothes added to the same.
