Earlier, Tendulkar had urged the Indian to opt out playing any sport and talked about the idea of sports in an individuals life.

In a video posted on social media, Tendulkar said, “There were few things that I wanted to speak about yesterday (in the parliament) and I will try to do the same now. I often wondered what brought me here. Little did I know that those baby steps in cricket will lead me to a lifetime of memories. I always loved playing sports and cricket was my life.”

He further added, “My father Ramesh Tendulkar was a poet and a writer. He always supported me and encouraged me to become what I wanted to be in life. The greatest gift that I got from him was the freedom to play… the right to play and I will forever be grateful to him for that.”
