From Breaking Photo Frames To Cracking Record IPL Deal, Father Recalls Kartik Sharma’s Rs 14.20 Crore Dream
Bharatpur District Cricket Association: The journey of Indian Premier League's (IPL) newest sensation Kartik Sharma is not just a cricketing success story; it is a powerful tale of sacrifice, resilience, and unwavering belief. Once forced to sleep hungry and stay in night shelters due to lack of money, Kartik today stands among India’s most expensive IPL buys, after being picked for Rs. 14.20 crore in the auction on Tuesday.
After his IPL selection, Kartik, with his parents, returned to his hometown, Bharatpur, where he was warmly and emotionally welcomed at Agarwal Dharamshala, Khirni Ghat. Prominent citizens of the city and members of the Bharatpur District Cricket Association (BDCA) gathered to honour the young cricketer whose rise has brought pride to the entire district.
Kartik’s father, Manoj Sharma, who earns a modest living, recalled the hardships behind his son’s success. “Our income was limited, but my wife Radha and I saw a dream — to make Kartik a cricketer, no matter the cost,” he told IANS.
