Sachin Tendulkar, arguably the world’s greatest ever batsman was livid due to rumors surrounding his daughter, Sara. Gossip mills were abuzz when a rumour was spread stating that the iconic cricketer’s daughter was to star opposite Shahid Kapoor in her debut movie.
Tendulkar, known for his straight-from-the-heart approach quickly dismissed the rumours, and clarified what he thought in a tweet. The tweet was made from his own verified account. Here is the tweet, made by Sachin Tendulkar:
My daughter Sara is enjoying her academic pursuits. Annoyed at all the baseless speculation about her joining films.

Meanwhile, Tendulkar is himself making his film debut in a documentary cum feature on his life. The documentary is to be directed by James Erskine, a London based filmmaker. Erskine recently went on to say that the movie promises to have “never seen before facets and footage” about the cricket icon.
In March this year, the little master had invited his fans to suggest an apt title for the movie. The movie is being envisioned by 200 Not Out, a Mumbai based production company along with World Sports Group, the company that manages Brand Sachin.
The documentary will highlight Tendulkar’s phenomenal rise in cricket and his fans keenly await the release of the movie.
