About
Saheb, a jovial, friendly, and kind-hearted boy loved to play soccer. He was very much neglected by his selfish brothers. Only his sister-in-law and his only sister Boolti appreciated and took care of him. Saheb had the potential to become a good goalkeeper, but a lack of support and care from his family became the main obstacle to his growth. Suddenly Boolti's marriage was fixed with a well-educated family. The budget of the event made Saheb's family helpless. At that time, Saheb sold one of his kidneys and spoiled his football career. No one was aware of his decision. On the day of his sister's marriage when everyone was enjoying themselves, Saheb was fighting for his life. Suddenly his sister-in-law came to know everything and became very upset. All his brothers were imposing allegations against him for that unaccounted money, and then his sister-in-law exposed everything and made them quiet. At last, Saheb's incompetent father went to hospital and mourned for his neglected child.
