Sachin Tendulkar may have stopped playing cricket but he is still a very busy person, especially nowadays, as he is promoting his upcoming biopic entitled “Sachin: A Billion Dreams”. He has dedicated the biopic to his father and elder brother and it seems that he is very much attached with it.
Sachin, who is also called the God of cricket, is not leaving any chance of promoting his movie. Recently, he also met the Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi to tell him about his flick and take his blessings. However, now people are getting tired of him promoting the biopic and when he went to meet the personnel of Indian Army for promotions, Twitterati lost patience and started slamming Little Master. His statement also holds the responsibility for making people angry as he said, “When I decided to do this movie, first thought was that 1st screening should be for Indian Armed forces: Tendulkar #SachinABillionDreams.”

People felt that Sachin was using the name of Indian Armed forces for the purpose of promoting his movie and they also pointed out that he did nothing for the Indian Armed forces till now but didn’t mind using them for the endorsement. There were many who showed their anger due to his absence in the Rajya Sabha.
Here are some of the selected reactions:
A publicity stunt:

Well, everyone has the right to speak out his/her mind but we still feel that a little patience should be exercised while slamming a person like Sachin Tendulkar, who has made the country proud all across the globe.
