I don't think there will be another Sachin: Sachin Tendulkar

Legendary former Indian cricketer Sachin Tendulkar is arguably the most revered cricketer of his generation. He has always been a stalwart of the game and the youngsters seek inspiration from his herculean efforts on the field. The master blaster is all set to reveal some of the most interesting stories of his life in his upcoming biopic release – Sachin: A billion dreams.

The movie is set to roll out in the theaters on May 26. Currently, Sachin Tendulkar is busy promoting his movie on the social media and the other promotional events. Recently, in a conversation with India Today, he revealed that there will never be another Sachin. Well, this was not an egoistic reply from the master. What he meant from the statement was that there will be newer names, newer identities.

“I don’t think there will be another Sachin, it will be another individual,” he quoted.

The eyes of the cricket world are eagerly waiting for the upcoming edition of the Champions Trophy. When asked to name a few individuals who would light up the tournament, Sachin Tendulkar emphasized that it is a team game. Individuals do not win matches, but teams do.

“I believe teams win championships. No individual can win championships. I think it’s always the team and if you see 2011 (World Cup), it was the entire team which was in form. Different players performed at different stages,” remarked the legendary cricketer.

Nostalgic cricket memories

Talking about the biopic, he noted that it feels great to be revisiting his own life and the 24 years of cricket he played in the movie. He also revealed that the movie will show some of the best moments he has shared with his wife, Anjali Tendulkar. The story of how and when they met, will all be there for the audiences to see.

“To go back 24 years, right from my first game to the last game, that is just one chapter in this movie. My childhood, how I started playing cricket, those memories are special. The biopic will show things that no one else had access to before. The audience will get to see my romance with Anjali (Tendulkar). How I met my wife and how we took it forward is part of film,” he quipped.
