It means embarassment felt.

Paise, I submitted the wrong article!

2.

Smallest and now defunct unit of currency in india.

100 paise = 1 rupee

6 paise = 1 anna.

hence 24 paise = 4 anna, but the one paise gets added usually, and a 25 paise coin is known as a charanna or a chavanni.

Therefore a 50 paise coin is known as an athanna, or an attanni, but the word has been bastardised into adhanna, meaning half an anna, which does not make sense.
