Aur main uss wqat naukri kar rahi thi Mc Donald's mein jhaadu pochhe ki jisme mahine ka Rs 1800 mil raha tha. Toh mere liye din ka Rs 1200 was much better than mahine ka Rs 1800. Mere paas uss waqt naukri nahi thi aisi. Agar aap Rs 1800 mahine ka kamate ho aur aap 22-23 saal ke ho aur aapko apna ghar chalana hai, aapke paas option nahi hai. " (He asked me, 'What are you signing?' I was going to receive between rupees 1200 to 1400 in the contract. At that time, I was working as a cleaner at McDonald's, earning Rs 1800 per month. So, earning Rs 1200 per day was much better for me than Rs 1800 per month. I didn't have another job then. When you're 22-23 years old, earning Rs 1800 per month and supporting a household, you don't have many options).

LeBron James tried golf and the internet is shocked by what his swing looks like next to Charles Barkley's (Image Source: Instagram) Charles Barkley kicked off his golf journey in the early 1990s with a lot of promise—he had a single-digit handicap and often shot below 80. However, after he began taking numerous lessons, his swing fell apart in the mid-90s, spiraling from sub-80 rounds to over 100 strokes. His swing became a spectacle of awkward pauses and spasms.
