Article.(180)

Article Published in The Gulf Today,on 18.December.10.UAE (180) Sportive spirit

Sports personalities are not only respected by their fans, but also get the backing of the corporate sector. The other day my neighbour dropped in and asked: “Do you know cricketer Sachin Tendulkar has refused to be the ambassador of a leading corporate house despite being offered a huge package?”

The cricketer has been quoted as saying that his dad is against such endorsements. The offer was for a liquor advertisement.

The master blaster obeyed his dad’s wish. Kudos to Sachin for his unwavering personal values and ethics. Present-day children can learn from this sportsman.
