Batting legend Sachin Tendulkar on Saturday thanked fans for in-flight “Sachin, Sachin” chant and said the moment took him back to his playing days.
“Thank you to those on my flight who were chanting my name a little while ago, reminiscent of when I used to come out to bat,” Sachin wrote on Twitter.

Thank you to those on my flight who were chanting my name a little while ago, reminiscent of when I used to come out to bat. Unfortunately, the seatbelt sign was on so I could not stand up to greet you. So saying a big hello to all now 👋🏻👋🏻 https://t.co/ak4GYLjMi4

Sachin quoted a fellow traveller, who posted the video, saying: This happened just now on my flight! Be it on or off the field, the chants of ‘Sachin, Sachin!’ continue to reverberate in our hearts always!”

Tendulkar also apologised to the fans for not able to “stand up” and “greet them” as the “seatbelt sign was on.”
“Unfortunately, the seatbelt sign was on so I could not stand up to greet you. So saying a big hello to all now.”
