Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. touching.

The correct answer is "touching" because it conveys an emotionally moving or heartwarming experience, which fits the context of Sudama and Krishna's heartfelt reunion.

The other options don't work as well: "collective" refers to a group experience, "tormenting" suggests pain or distress, and "grueling" refers to something difficult or exhausting, none of which suit the positive and emotional tone of the reunion.

Therefore, "touching" is the most appropriate choice.
