Feeling a bit sad.

Had 1 written test, 2 tech rounds, 1 managerial and 1 hr round in a very big company. Had Salary negotiation as well.

But after a week, got rejection mail. Is it common in IT world? This is my first interview experience as an experienced guy. So kind of sad.

I gave interviews is 47 companies, more than 15 companies over 4 rounds of interviews. 7 in salary negotiation. Only 1 bothered to reply with a rejection, 46 didn't even bother to say No. So yeah, its pretty common in IT world.(All of this within 75 days)

They might have found someone with less pay. Don't get disheartened. All the best for your future.

No, this is not common. They usually hire you once you reach the salary discussion stage. Maybe you could ask them why? something like "Would really appreciate feedback and reason for rejection so that I can work on it in future" politely. If you have HR's number, call directly as mail gets late response sometimes.

Even I felt the same

Don't know what's wrong here. The interviewer was concerned and was showing empathy. It will be difficult for both the parents.

He was being open and real.

Also very much depends on the tone. Since we were not part of it couldn't say.

On ground level be it man or women, In reality if he/she is in need of job would have told yes I can handle things. It's not a problem.
