Dupchu was a jovial man and it seems that the only problem or the flaws he has within him was the habit of drinking too much. He drank too much, he used to drink even before breakfast and even during the working hours he used to drink and sleep and the labourers often joked the truck to be his second home. At one time, he tried to be sober beacuse the father in a wild rage, gave a slap on his face fired him as he was not taking his job with integrity and puntuality. On being asked, "Why do you drink? " he said "Its like being in love".
