Gandhi ji believed in the power of simple things. A simple life, a simple thought, a simple act. And yet, the impact was anything but simple.

Learnt about the incredible bravery of Captain Smit Machchhar. Immense courage in the face of a terrifying and unprecedented challenge. A true real-life hero. The entire world is proud of you. 🇮🇳 👏🏻

I’m excited to announce my partnership with OpenAI. We have some interesting things coming up, and I can’t wait to share them with you.

I’ve always been curious... One question usually leads to another, and ChatGPT has certainly encouraged that habit. But it has also proved useful when I’ve needed to get things done, like planning my last trip with the family.

That’s what I’m looking forward to with this partnership. Discovering what else I can do with ChatGPT, sharing what I find useful, and encouraging more people to give it a try with something they care about.

A question, an idea, something you’ve always wanted to explore. There are so many places to start.

Looking forward to exploring together.

Watching you grow into the person you are today has been one of the greatest joys of my life. Happy birthday, Arjun. Keep being you. ❤��

There’s something very special about watching cricket find new homes.

Seeing India play Japan is wonderful in itself, but what made me smile was seeing reckoners being given to the audience at the entrance so they could understand the game better.

We’ve all had our first cricket match. It’s lovely to see more people getting theirs.

Credit to the Japan team for taking on the challenge and putting up a fight. 🇮🇳🇯🇵🏏

[Sachin Tendulkar @sachin_rt]

That’s the beauty of a team game. Different players, different moments, one big result.

Shafali and Smriti’s 99-run partnership at the top gave India the platform, Richa Ghosh’s late blitz took the total to a massive 216, and then Shafali, Deepti, Shreyanka and Shree Charani kept finding the wickets.

A terrific effort from the Indian women’s team. Congratulations on the Gold! 🥇🇮🇳

Wishing a very Happy Birthday to Hon'ble Prime Minister Shri @narendramodi ji. Your tireless dedication to the nation continues to inspire us all. Praying for your long life, good health, and happiness as you guide India to new heights. 🙏🏼

A bat was never just a piece of equipment for me.

I knew how I wanted it to feel in my hands, down to the smallest detail. So I’d often bring out my carpentry kit and work on it myself, shaping and adjusting it until it felt right.

I suppose that’s why I remember those little moments so fondly. They were never really about the bat. They were about making it my own.

[Sachin Tendulkar @sachin_rt]

That was some tennis!

Every time it looked like one of them had the match, the other fought his way back. And then it came down to the final few points.

Well played, Ben Shelton! Tough luck, Carlos. Coming back after an injury makes this one even tougher.

[Sachin Tendulkar @sachin_rt]

It was a wonderful meeting... Many congratulations on your new role as the President of the Esports Games Federation. Wishing you the absolute best.

I truly enjoyed our conversation today. It’s always special when you can seamlessly shift from talking about family and travel to swapping stories about our fur friends and our shared love for wildlife. Thank you for the warm invitation, and I look forward to seeking Bappa’s blessings 🙏🏼

Had the privilege of meeting Bharat Ratna Sachin Tendulkar today. As President of the E Sports Games Federation, presented him the Federation’s book and extended a special invitation to visit the Bandra West Sarvajanik Ganeshotsav Mandal to seek our beloved Bappa’s blessings.

Indeed, a memorable interaction with a legend who continues to inspire generations through his passion for sport.

When I think about the people who shaped my journey, I do not begin with a cricket ground or a coach. I begin at home.
Long before anyone outside my family knew my name, my father had begun to recognise my love for cricket and, perhaps more importantly, understand what it meant to me. He never knew exactly where that journey would take me. But he gave me the freedom to pursue it.
My father, Ramesh Tendulkar, was a writer, poet, and a professor, but more a mentor, a guide to many, including me. He gave me the freedom to pursue cricket while reminding me that success should never come at the cost of character. Some of the words my father said to me as a young boy have stayed with me throughout my life: failure is okay, but cheating is not. Never take shortcuts.
I was simply a boy who loved playing cricket. My father saw something more. He did not try to decide what I should become. Instead, he gave me the space and support to discover it for myself.
That, in many ways, is what a great teacher or mentor does. They recognise a possibility in you before you can recognise it yourself.
India has no shortage of young talent. Whether a child picks up a bat, a ball, a book or discovers an ability in some other field, it makes them unique in their own way. What they often lack is not talent, but access to people who can recognise that talent and help nurture it.
This belief was at the core of why Anjali and I started the Foundation. Across India, there are children with immense potential who may never get the chance to discover it because they lack access to a coach, a mentor, the right learning environment or basic healthcare. Our vision is that they get equal access to sports, healthcare and education, and a chance to prove that they belong.
My father spent his life as an educator, and I think his greatest lesson to me was the importance of giving someone the confidence and opportunity to find their own potential. This Teachers’ Day, we take the opportunity to honour the first person who saw something in me and believed in what I could become.
It is with immense pride, we are introducing the Professor Ramesh Tendulkar Memorial Fellowship, in partnership with our long-standing healthcare partner, Inga Health Foundation.
Each year, one MD (Doctor of Medicine) will receive financial support for a year-long opportunity to specialise in cleft and craniofacial care in Srinagar. On completing the programme, the fellow will receive a certificate from the Sachin Tendulkar Foundation, recognising the excellence. This is part of our long-standing commitment to support healthcare professionals in critical care and also encourage the young doctors in their field of study.
For me, this is more than a fellowship. It is a way of carrying forward something my father deeply believed in - that education creates opportunity, and that opportunity becomes truly meaningful when it is used to serve others.
My father gave me the confidence to find my own path. He dedicated his life to educating and guiding others, and I hope we can create that same sense of possibility for others, giving children and young people the opportunity to discover what they can become, and the means to make something of it.
The lessons of a teacher may begin with one student, but their influence can travel much further, from one life to another and from one generation to the next.
Happy Teachers’ Day!

Dear @IAF_MCC,

Just finished watching Operation Safed Sagar. It made me think about how different life is for the people who are out there, carrying the pressure and uncertainty, while the rest of us are able to sleep peacefully and carry on with our everyday lives.

I had met Air Chief Marshal BS Dhanoa many years ago. Watching Operation Safed Sagar now, and seeing what he and so many others went through during Kargil, made me look back at that meeting with a deeper sense of appreciation.

The courage is extraordinary. So is the discipline and mental strength behind it.

I feel fortunate to be associated with the IAF and to have an understanding of the values that define it. Watching this story only made me more grateful.

Thank you for everything you do for us. Jai Hind!

[Sachin Tendulkar @sachin_rt]

Happy birthday, Aai. Clearly, you are everyone’s favourite! ❤️

We pray that you always have this much love around you, and more of it jumping into your lap.

[Sachin Tendulkar @sachin_rt]

There is perhaps no greater uncertainty than not knowing whether someone you love is safe. My heart goes out to all the families affected by the devastating floods in Nepal, especially those still waiting for news. Praying for their loved ones and for the rescue teams working tirelessly to reach them.

[Sachin Tendulkar @sachin_rt]

Was too busy enjoying the food, the family, and the fur to post about it! Happy Onam to those who celebrated.

PS: Extra piece of dessert for whoever can spot Bouncer 😂

You don't have to be the best in the world to feel on top of the world.
That's what we believe here at @tenxyou_in and that's what the #NeverStopPlaying Anthem is about.

Happy Independence Day! 🇮🇳

[Sachin Tendulkar @sachin_rt]

Congratulations on a remarkable career, @ajinkyarahane88.

The first time we batted together for Mumbai, I saw someone who never chased moments. They came to you because you were willing to do the hard yards for the team. That same quality defined your finest hour in Australia. You showed that composure isn't the opposite of aggression. It is often what gives a team the confidence to be fearless.

Congratulations on a wonderful career! Wishing you and your family all the very best.
