Jinder Mahal arrived in India on October 13th to promote the upcoming WWE Live show in the country.
He had quite a busy schedule since then with a few media sessions to hype up the upcoming event at the Indira Gandhi Indoor Stadium in New Delhi on December 8th and 9th. The promotion spree did involve all the mainstream attention that WWE needs to enter the entertainment world in the country.
Plus, WWE officials do know that Cricket in this country is considered to be the religion, whereas, Sachin Tendulkar is regarded to be the God of the game, here. So, there’s no better way to gain attention from the sports lovers from the subcontinent by getting in touch with the Master Blaster.
Considering this, the WWE management from India has arranged a session for Jinder Mahal to meet Sachin Tendulkar. He visited the maestro and had some talks about the products of WWE. The main purpose of this visit was to invite the legendary Cricketer to the upcoming show in December.
WWE Champion @JinderMahal meets the master-blaster @Sachin_rt to invite him to #WWELive.

If the words of WWE officials in India are to be believed, then Sachin will be attending the event from the capital city of India. His presence will fetch even more crowd to the much-anticipated house show to get hosted by the biggest pro-wrestling promotion of the world.
Jinder gifted Sachin with his own t-shirt written Modern-Day Maharaja on it. Arjun Tendulkar, Sachin’s son, was also present during the meeting. He is quite a fan of the WWE programming on Indian television.
