Mixed reactions were seen with Sachin Tendulkar’s nomination to Rajya Sabha. While some of his co-players and team members are pleased with this decision of President, many from film industry have different opinions.
Super Star Amitabh expressed his happiness saying, ‘This is a very honorable position. In the past, Sunil Dutt’s wife Nargis was also nominated. Whoever nominated for Rajya Sabha are the deserving people.’ On the other hand, Bollywood ‘Khal Nayak’ Sanjay Dutt being one of the biggest Fans of Master was unhappy with this. He said, ‘I am Sachin’s Fan and he is the pride, jewel of India but I am not happy of his entry into Rajya Sabha. He should have been the way he is.’ Similar views are signified by some intellectuals among public who are feared that Politics might become an extra burden on an innocent Sachin affecting his natural playing sense.
