Question

Why did Rakesh’s achievements lose their shine in due time?

Answer 1

Rakesh’s achievements gradually lost their shine because people became accustomed to his success. His fame no longer seemed new or dazzling to those around him. At the same time, his father grew old, lost his wife and became increasingly ill and demanding. Rakesh’s efficient manner began to seem less like a virtue to his father and more like cold-heartedness.
