Sachin gives joy to his biggest fan / fanatic - Sudhir Gautam

Roshanrocks · 04-03-2011, 08:52 AM

Sachin Tendulkar walked out of the changing room and gestured to Sudhir Gautam to come up. Gautam is the thin man with the shaven head - for the past few weeks adorned with a replica of the World Cup - and body covered in the Indian tri-colour. For at least half a decade now, Gautam has been Tendulkar's biggest fan, waving the Indian flag and blowing his conch shell at every venue Tendulkar plays. Today, Tendulkar decided to repay Gautam for his devotion.

No sooner had he realised that Tendulkar was calling, Gautam jumped the electronic advertising hoarding and skipped up the 30-odd stairs on to the corridor of the Indian changing room. All through his short journey he screamed in delight. Tendulkar shook hands with him, then embraced him and finally asked one of his team-mates to get the World Cup trophy. Zaheer Khan brought the cup outside with utmost care and held it tight. Gautam almost snatched it out of his hands but Zaheer held on. Eventually Zaheer let go and Gautam lifted the Cup with both hands, screaming "India". Tendulkar could not help but smile; he started clapping and was joined by a few of his team-mates. The sweat on Tendulkar's face glistened under the floodlights, enhancing his joy of winning the World Cup .

It was a day when the common man felt he was part of something special, when the gap between fan and superstar was bridged, with Gautam becoming the envy of fellow fans as he freely slipped in and out of the most sought after place in India, the team's dressing room.

How proud and happy he must have felt, holding the world cup with Sachin Tendulkar

He also let Kumble hold the Cup and applauded when Anil touched it. Apparently, Dhoni also uprooted one stump for Sourav Ganguly. I also love the way they gave Kirsten the accolades he deserved.

Very thoughtful

More evidence in support of the theory that - when character is included as a major criterion - SRT is the greatest WORLD sports icon of all time.

Across all sports - there have been many, but SRT definitely alongside with best of the lot.
e.g. (going by few video evidences) Don himself was every bit same as SRT - when it comes to modesty humility and focus.

Misu243 · 04-03-2011, 05:26 PM

amazinggggg...happy to see Sudhir Gautam lift the trophyyy..he represents all us diehard fans of Team india and Sachin Tendulkar!!!

saneindian · 04-03-2011, 06:01 PM

As fans, this is the moment one dies for.

Great to see Gautam get the best reward of his life ever. An apt one for his years of dedication.

And Sachin, can he ever put a foot wrong? Even in the proudest moment of his cricketing career, with cameras focussed on him, multitude of emotions running through, he remembered his fan and made him feel special!! Legend.

What an awesome, touching moment that is...seeing Sachin share the glory with his most devoted fan...couldn't help a few tears thinking of just what Sachin and this World Cup mean to our nation.

ganeshran · 04-03-2011, 08:06 PM

21 years of so much money, fame, love, talent has still kept Sachin down to earth. What more can we ask of him

akshayxyz · 04-03-2011, 08:09 PM

@mastana and others who say he is "lucky".
