Correct Answer: Shyam, so good with weapons, fail to find the words


Solution : The second option is correct.

The subject Shyam is singular, and so the verb should also be singular to match.

The verb fail is in the plural form, so it should be replaced with fails to correct the error.

Therefore, the correct sentence is: Shyam, so good with weapons, fails to find the words to tell him that everything he'd done so far, all the compromises he'd made, had been for love.
