Tendulkar gifts tricycle to fan

Mussoorie, December 27
Cricket maestro Sachin Tendulkar, the soft-spoken and kind-hearted man that he is, has gifted a tricycle to a local differently abled child, thereby fulfilling a promise he had made to the child during his previous visit to Mussoorie.

Guddu, a youngster from Kolti village near Mussoorie, is a fan of Tendulkar and had met the master blaster during his previous visit to Mussoorie in March. At that time, Tendulkar had thought of helping his young fan who cannot walk. He had therefore promised to give him a tricycle.

Guddu was thrilled yesterday when Tendulkar presented him with a tricycle and chatted with him for some time. Guddu said, “This is like a dream come true and I am perhaps the luckiest child in the world.”

Meanwhile, a large number of fans thronged the Lal Tibba area to get a glimpse of the champion batsman. The fans were disappointed in the morning today as Tendulkar and his family had gone sightseeing to Tehri and Dhanolti.

Tendulkar did not disappoint his fans yesterday and a number of people were lucky to get his autograph or a picture with him.

Shobhit, a ten-year-old boy from New Delhi, who along with his parents has come to Mussoorie, was overjoyed after meeting Tendulkar. “I am a great fan of Sachin and it was a proud moment to speak to him and get a picture with him.”

Abhinav Mathur, a doctor from Meerut, was completely oblivious of the fact that Tendulkar was in Mussoorie. The young doctor took a long time to recognise Tendulkar as he walked past him. “I saw Sachin and thought that this person resembles Tendulkar. Only when he came near did I realise that it was actually the great man himself and I rushed to get an autograph.”
