Destitute को उनकी line से सुनिए: 'देसी एटीट्यूड = डेस्टिट्यूट'। सोचिए 'रहने दो, मैं नहीं करूँगा' वाला attitude — ऐसा व्यक्ति आगे नहीं बढ़ता और सब कुछ खोकर destitute हो सकता है।

Hear destitute as 'desi attitude', his line. Picture a careless 'I won't bother' attitude: whoever keeps it never moves ahead and may end up with nothing at all, destitute.
