On the occasion of International Women’s Day, Indian cricketing legend Sachin Tendulkar has paid tribute to five of the most influential women of his life. He has highlighted how those women have helped him become the figure he is today. He thanked his wife, his mother, his aunt, his daughter and his mother-in-law for all the great things they have done to help him over the years.
Tendulkar has said how Rajni Tendulkar, her mother has always looked after his health. The god of cricket said how she would always make sure that her son if completely healthy and fit. He has thanked his ‘another mother’, Mangala Tendulkar, who happens to be his aunt. Tendulkar spent four years of his life at his aunt’s house, who was always available at his service.
He has then thanked Anjali Tendulkar, his wife, who stood beside him like a rock on both the good and bad times. She has backed every decision Tendulkar has taken, whether it is regarding cricket of not. Mrs. Tendulkar also devoted all her time and efforts to look after the kids, while Tendulkar was busy scoring all those important runs for his country.
Like her, Tendulkar has also thanked Anjali’s mother for always having trust on her son-in-law. Finally, he has also thanked his daughter, Sara Tendulkar. He is proud of the way that Sara, who is not a kid anymore and has turned into a wonderful woman, has stayed true to her roots.
