Answer:

C. Doleful

Read Explanation:

  • Joyous and euphoric means സന്തോഷം നിറഞ്ഞ
    • E.g. "Weddings are always joyous occasions." (വിവാഹങ്ങൾ എപ്പോഴും സന്തോഷകരമായ സന്ദർഭങ്ങളാണ്).
  • blissful - പരമാനന്ദമായ
  • elated - സന്തോഷം നിറഞ്ഞുകവിഞ്ഞ/ഹര്‍ഷോന്മത്തനായ/ആവേശഭരിതനായ
    • All these words express happiness and joy.
  • Whereas, doleful means ദുഃഖിതമായ/ശോകമുളള. "Doleful" means sad or mournful, which is the opposite of joyous.
