Legendary batsman Sachin Tendulkar extended Mother's Day wishes with a special and heartwarming tribute to his mother. Taking to Twitter, Sachin Tendulkar posted a picture of himself as a baby in his mother's hands. The Master Blaster wrote, You are AAI to me because, besides everything else you are Always Amazing & Irreplaceable. Thank you for everything you have done for me.
Sachin also spoke to frontline officials who are mothers and are fighting in the war against COVID-19, but also applauded their efforts and sacrifices for the nation. Speaking on the occasion, Tendulkar said: "This is an unprecedented time when the mothers cannot be with their children. I just wanted to thank everyone through this platform. During this break, I have been asked one question consistently by everyone ''So you must be getting a lot of time with your family?'' But at the same time, we are forgetting there are a number of COVID-19 warriors who are selflessly working for us and not getting enough time with their families. Some of them have not even gone home. This is the time for the nation to applaud all their efforts and however much we thank, it is not enough. And it is all being done in the interest of the nation.
"I remember watching a video where a mother who happens to be a nurse was standing 20 feet away from her baby and her husband was with the baby. The baby was crying away, but the poor mother could not go and give a hug to the baby. Can you imagine a sacrifice like that? I am sure the baby must have wondered why the mother wasn''t giving a hug as it must have never happened before. But I am sure in the time to come when the baby grows up, she will understand how a big a sacrifice was that from the mother''s side. And such selfless acts
you just have to say hats off to the mother''s commitment. A big thank you to her from all of us."
