I saw this lanky little boy moving well, landing well, and being able to sustain a speed of 125 km/h. We made some tweaks but he was wasted in my club.

It was an amazing feeling to watch him play live and play so well, in fact I don’t know how to put into words the happiness I felt. We have only watched his live broadcast online before.

I asked him if I could keep the furniture from my apartment in his apartment for a while so I could complete the interior decorating work at home. He refused at the time and wouldn’t even help us move the furniture. When he refused, I asked him, family etiquette nahi diye hai hai kya? He may have realized his mistake and agreed to help. Some days he was ill. He had felt lonely. I used to make sure that my family took care of him like their own child. “
