Sachin Tendulkar Broke Down While Paying Tribute To Sri Sathya Saibaba

Master blaster Sachin Tendulkar broke down while paying his last respects to spiritual leader Sathya Sai Baba here on Monday. Sachin, who turned 38 Sunday, did not celebrate his birthday due to Baba's death.

Sachin had visited Puttaparthi in the past and sought blessings of Baba, who died Sunday after a prolonged illness at the age of 85. 

Sachin, an ardent devotee of Baba, was seen wiping his tears from a handkerchief handed over by his wife. He also spoke to an official of Sathya Sai Central Trust sitting beside him.

Accompanied by wife Anjali and friend V. Chamundeshwarnath, Sachin sat beside the body of Sathya Sai Baba at Sai Kulwant Hall in Prashanti Nilayam, and prayed for him.
