Memorable Quote of Sachin Tendulkar

"Nothing bad can happen to us if we're on a plane in India with Sachin Tendulkar on it." - Hashim Amla, the South African batsman, reassures himself as he boards a flight.

"Sometimes you get so engrossed in watching batsmen like Rahul Dravid and Sachin Tendulkar that you lose focus on your job." - Yaseer Hameed in Pakistani newspaper.

"To Sachin, the man we all want to be" - Andrew Symonds wrote on an Aussie t-shirt he autographed specially for Sachin.

“Beneath the helmet, under that unruly curly hair, inside the cranium, there is something we don't know, something beyond scientific measure. Something that allows him to soar, to roam a territory of sport that, forget us, even those who are gifted enough to play alongside him cannot even fathom. When he goes out to bat, people switch on their TV sets and switch off their lives." - BBC on Sachin

"Tujhe pata hai tune kiska catch chhoda hai?" (Do you know who’s catch you dropped?) - Wasim Akram to Abdul Razzaq when the latter dropped Sachin's catch in 2003 WC.
Sachin is a genius. I'm a mere mortal. - Brian Charles Lara

"We did not lose to a team called India...we lost to a man called Sachin." -

Mark Taylor, during the test match in Chennai (1997)

"The more I see of him the more confused I'm getting to which is his best knock." - M. L. Jaisimha

"The joy he brings to the millions of his countrymen, the grace with which he handles all the adulation and the expectations and his innate humility - all make for a one-in-a-billion individual," - Glen McGrath

"I can be hundred per cent sure that Sachin will not play for a minute longer when he is not enjoying himself. He is still so eager to go out there and play. He will play as long as he feels he can play," - Anjali Tendulkar
Question: Who do you think as the most important celebrity ? Shah Rukh Khan: There was a big party where stars from bollywood and cricket were invited. Suddenly, there was a big noise, all wanted to see approaching Amitabh Bachhan. Then Sachin entered the hall and Amitabh was leading the queue to get a grab of the GENIUS!! - Shah Rukh Khan in an interview.

“India me aap PrimeMinister ko ek Baar Katghare me khada kar sakte hain..Par Sachin Tendulkar par Ungli nahi utha Sakte.. “ (In India you can make even the Prime Minister stand in the court before a judge, but not Sachin…)- Navjot Singh Sidhu on TV

He can play that leg glance with a walking stick also. - Waqar Younis

'I Will See God When I Die But Till Then I Will See Sachin' - A banner in Sharjah
Sachin Tendulkar has often reminded me of a veteran army colonel who has many medals on his chest to show how he has conquered bowlers all over the world. I was bowling to Sachin and he hit me for two fours in a row. One from point and the other in between point and gully. That was the last two balls of the over and the over after that we (SA) took a wicket and during the group meeting I told Jonty (Rhodes) to be alert and I know a way to pin Sachin. And I delivered the first ball of my next over and it was a fuller length delivery outside offstump. And I shouted catch. To my astonishment the ball was hit to the cover boundary. Such was the brilliance of Sachin. His reflex time is the best I have ever seen. Its like 1/20th of a sec. To get his wicket better not prepare. Atleast u wont regret if he hits you for boundaries. - Allan Donald

On a train from Shimla to Delhi, there was a halt in one of the stations. The train stopped by for few minutes as usual. Sachin was nearing century, batting on 98. The passengers, railway officials, everyone on the train waited for Sachin to complete the century. This Genius can stop time in India!! - Peter Rebouck - Aussie journalist

"Sachin cannot cheat. He is to cricket what (Mahatma) Gandhiji was to politics. It's clear discrimination. " - NKP Salve, former Union Minister when Sachin was accused of ball tempering
There are 2 kind of batsmen in the world. One Sachin Tendulkar. Two all the others. - Andy Flower
"I have seen god, he bats at no.4 for India" - Mathew Hayden

"Commit all your sins when Sachin is batting. They will go unnoticed coz' even GOD is watching cricket at that time." - A hoarding in England

AND THEN... THIS ONE IS THE BEST!!! "Even my father's name is Sachin Tendulkar." - Tendulkar's daughter, Sara, tells her class her father's name after the teacher informs them of a restaurant of the same name in Mumbai, which is owned by Sachin. (This is what every children expects from their parents……………hats off to Sachin) Tendulkar made his India debut as a 16-year-old against Pakistan in November 1989, since setting many batting records, including Test and One-day aggregates and hundreds.

PAA

PAA is an amazing experience. It makes you realize two things. One, the Hindi film industry is also capable of narrating fresh stories. Two, Amitabh Bachchan is truly the most accomplished actor this side of the Atlantic. Talking from the business point of view, PAA has been made in a sensible and reasonable budget [approx. Rs. 17 crores, including P & A expenses], which should easily be recovered from multiplexes alone. In the final tally, here's a film that should win awards [for Auro] and also box-office rewards, given its low costs. A film that should strike a chord with every paa, maa... just about everyone with a heart!

India-Hapenning Part 1

Cricket:First of all congrat India beat NZ by 10 wickets to win 1st Test in Hamilton, lead series 1-0. This is India’s first win in NZ since 1976,Again Tendulkar create magic and score wonderful hundred that led pillar for creating History.but still things not good for IPL,The tournament showcasing the truncated version of cricket may itself get truncated. With the Centre unwilling to bend
on security concerns and states cautious about underwriting policing, the high-profile IPL T20 tournament may well be cut to less than a month with matches being held during a 27-day window in May, by when two of the five phases of polls would be over. The government has clearly indicated its reluctance to allow IPL to be held in April, pointing to the Election Commission's requirements for paramilitary and the need to maintain reserves. It has also made it clear that states hosting IPL matches will have to give specific undertakings that they are prepared to provide requisite security.
Some Election News:The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has formally announced that Varun Gandhi is its candidate for the Pilibit constituency in the upcoming general elections.The BJP, while declaring Varun Gandhi to be their candidate for Pilibhit, also urged the poll panel to take back the notice served on the party over the speeches.TOP JD(U) leaders and prominent members of the National Democratic Alliance, George Fernandes and Digvijay Singh, may defy their party's decision not to give them election tickets this year. Both have expressed their intentions to contest as independents from their respective constituencies. According to party sources, there is considerable opinion within the JD(U) that 79-year-old leader is not fit enough to take on the rough and tumble of election this time. But, Fernandes, unshakeable as he is, thinks otherwise. Fernandes said that if not as a JD(U) candidate, then he will fight as an independent from his constituency Muzaffarpur in Bihar.
Bollywood News:Bollywood could face a virtual shutdown after a dispute on revenue sharing between multiplex owners and film producers, leading to a freeze on marketing and release of all films after April 4.
While film producers are demanding a 50:50 share in box office revenues, multiplexes favour a performance-linked revenue sharing model, based on the film's budget, star-power and other such criteria.
"Marketing and distribution of all new films set to release from April 4 onwards has been suspended," producer Mukesh Bhatt, told reporters on Monday, on behalf of Mumbai's film producers.
On Tuesday, multiplex owners responded to the freeze, saying the producers were being unreasonable in their demands, and that grading a film on the basis of its box office performance was the best revenue-sharing model.
The city's Hindi film industry produces around 1,000 films a year.
Several big budget films were set to release in that period, and as much as 2.5-3.0 billion rupees riding on the first quarter on these films, Priti Shahani, Vice President of Indian Films, said.
Trade analyst Komal Nahta said the two sides had no choice but to reach a settlement on the issue.
Business News:Hold cash, mkts to fall 10-20% from here: Experts:Dhiraj Agarwal, Director Institutional Equities at Anand Rathi, feels the market, whcih has so far been moving in tandem with the global market, will break away for a while post elections. He expects market action to be stock-specific for the next one-two years and sees a secular trend in the market.
Jyotivardhan Jaipuria of DSP Merrill Lynch believes fundamentals are still weak and expects the market to give away its gains in the last 15 days soon. The Midcap Index may not outperform over three months, he said.
Agarwal and Jaipuria both believe the markets would hit new lows prior to the election this time around as fears will mount ahead elections given the huge uncertainty of the outcome. They added good election results could lead to a rally.

The Best time to Earn Money 2009

Alternate days up and down and that is what we have seen today as well. The Sensex was up 300 points on Wednesday, then 300 points down on Thursday and then 300 points up on Friday. So, a seesawing market, which has left us flat by the end of the week, just about 1% odd down on the Nifty. But the last three days of trade have each produced 3% moves in the market in opposite directions.

That was the big story of the day. It suddenly turned volatile in the last three days and today was a very largecap kind of day. Volumes were very thin for a day that produced a 3% move, there was just Rs 40,000 crore of trade, which is very unusual to say the least. So, today’s move was not backed by volumes neither by great breadth but with some very interesting performances from the largecap space like Reliance Industries, NTPC, SAIL, Bharti, R Comm, ONGC, ICICI Bank, the key blue-chips that you would expect to move when the Nifty moves as much as it did today — all of them moved.

The exception as always was real estate. So, Unitech and DLF did not quite participate in the largecap move. But the others did. So, it is a good closing for the Nifty for the week under the circumstances. But it still doesn’t give you that level of conviction because of the market’s internals.
