I think mainly because he belongs to our same generation and connects with us so much.
I still remember, first day of 12th we sat in our 11th class only in the morning, then he came and said; "now it's time for you to go, from today..." Then he had this expression, we all were like 😭
That day IDK we all felt he was kind of ignoring us, didn't even visit us in class till afternoon we all were kind of traumatised otherwise in 11th as class teacher he used to check on us every now and then, but then suddenly we lost that warmth😊
Afternoon we came and we all had a good conversation but then he gave this kind of speech to how to behave in 12th, don't disappoint your class teacher and some dialogues which made us all really emotional. My friend actually cried before that during lunch break😆
Arre ye sab padh ke mujhe Rona aa Gaya😭
Humare school mein toh 11th 12 th mein same hi class teacher hote the.😆
