For Sachin Tendulkar and Anjali, it was nothing less than of a love at first sight. The two first met at the Mumbai International Airport. Sachin was returning from his first international cricket tour in 1990 whilst Anjali was at the airport to receive her mother. They both took an instant liking to each other on the first time they met. Later, the two met at a common friend’s place and got to know each other better.
When Sachin and Anjali first met, Anjali was practising medicine, while Sachin had just begun his cricketing career. Anjali a dedicated student was much involved in studies and was very less interested in cricket. Later when they started dating, Anjali made all efforts to brush up her knowledge about the sport.
Being as famous as he was right from the beginning of his career, Sachin could get very few instances to go out on uninterrupted dates with Anjali. They were afraid that if people recognised the cricketer, they would not be able to enjoy their day. So to avoid all the attention, Sachin went to watch the movie in disguise, wearing a false beard and specs.
This super-cute couple welcomed their baby girl October 12, 1997, and named her, Sara Tendulkar, and September 24, 1999, they became parents to a baby boy, Arjun Tendulkar.
