It's back! A fake image of cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar in a sari purportedly for a fancy dress competition that has been in circulation for a few years is being shared on WhatsApp
Sachin in sari? Image of Tendulkar shared on WhatsApp is a hoax
Who is this lady? Can you guess who this lady is? These and many such similar questions are being asked on WhatsApp about a Maharashtrian woman who is dressed in a traditional sari.
People are circulating this image on WhatsApp claiming that this lady is none other than cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar. And it claims that he wore a sari for his college fancy dress competition.

Well, wake up and smell the coffee. It's not 'Amcha Tendulkar'. The image is a HOAX.
FACT: Sachin joined Kirti College in Mumbai, but hardly attended since he was busy setting new records on the green cricket fields in India and aboard. His international career started out when he was still in school at the age of 16 in 1989. (Remember Tendulkar made his Test debut against Pakistan in Karachi in November 1989 aged just 16 years and 205 days.)
FICTION: He dressed up as a woman.
The image seems to be of a woman who resembles the legend at the most.
It is disrespectful to both the woman and the Padma Shri awardee to share this image.
