Sachin Tendulkar and AR Rahman

I always feel some kind of similarity between AR Rahman and Sachin Tendulkar! The Oscar winner has also reached the peak of his career along with the batting maestro! Earlier they started off at almost about the same time. They started around the early 90s.

Read my eBook here (Version 1) :)

A.R.Rahman started his career when he was a young boy. He had a deep love for music! Similarly Sachin Tendulkar started playing cricket at the age of 3. A.R.Rahman took to making jingles at almost the same time when Sachin Tendulkar was playing for the domestic teams!

Sachin Tendulkar got a break in International Cricket during 1989 but he became a familiar household name by 1992, 93 and 94 by which time Rahman also turned a household name! Both Sachin and Rahman had the peak of their careers in the years 1994, 95, 96, 97, 98, 99 and 2000.

After 2000 both of them got slightly hit in their careers. They rose back to past glory occasionally. It might seem that Sachin Tendulkar had the biggest slump after 2000 but it is also true that A.R.Rahman did not fare as much as he did in the 90s.

AR Rahman and Sachin back to form

Sachin Tendulkar was not so convincing again to many (excluding those who understood the dynamics of the game) till 2006 and neither was AR Rahman so convincing. It was after 2007 that people started to notice them getting back to their best!

Now Rahman won the oscars, grammy and bafta! Sachin Tendulkar scored the double century in 2010. Tell me how long is it since Sachin Tendulkar scored the 200 after Rahman won Grammy! It was hardly a month I guess.

Similar Character traits of Rahman and Sachin

Have you ever observed that both their characters are very similar? Both Rahman and Sachin are reclusive individuals who concentrate extremely on their professions. I also believe both have been praised for their sheer original talent. When there are about half-a-dozen music plagiarizers in India, AR Rahman is known for his talent and Sachin Tendulkar's talent is unquestionable!

AR Rahman's songs are relatively original! When it comes to both their characters, they are very similar and that is for each and everybody to witness.

Above all, both of them have put India on top of the world through their love for the profession they have been in. They have nothing else to breach, no more records to be made and no more awards to be won! They both are at their peak with no saturation point above them! They keep going all the time! There is no stopping these two great individuals!

They both have contributed significantly to our nation! What more can they do? Right when you ask this question, both AR Rahman and Sachin Tendulkar come back with some form of an even greater achievement than all their previous achievements! They both have made India stand proud amidst all the nations in the world! They can never be forgotten and history will never dare to erase them from its pages!

Let me finish off with a pun! Both AR Rahman and Sachin Tendulkar make records! Does AR Rahman break records? LOL!!!!! One more to end this article! Both are called maestros!

Sachin Tendulkar better than Bradman

Have you wondered if Bhajji was right? Harbhajan Singh who had said that Sachin Tendulkar was better than Sir Don Bradman feels to me as rather right with his remark. But there is more to it that might count to make a player either better than Sir Don Bradman or at par with the great!

Earlier Cricket was only Test Cricket! The game has been in existence over the past couple of centuries but cricket became popular since the very beginning of the twentieth century. But then there were not much developments on the game during a Bradman. Sachin Tendulkar was the destiny's child who chanced upon the game by destiny at a time when the impact of One Day Cricket was felt upon the Test Cricket Runs Per Over.

A time when Test Cricket was played with four runs per over. Sachin Tendulkar was one who came to the game after India won the World Cup. The Indian Team, I believe, had hitherto been an underdog in the ODI format ever since the first World Cup. I mean prior to the World Cup win in 1983.

Sachin Tendulkar had an innate ability with the bat which came at the very age of three. His love for the game could have started much before he held his first bat and took his stance.

Sachin and Bradman

Sachin Tendulkar vs Sir Don Bradman is the debate that was once initiated when Sir Don Bradman observed that Tendulkar's batting style was similar to his. He was a prolific run scorer and so was Sachin. They both played the same kind of shots. I had not known a certain Bradman before Sachin Tendulkar was invited by the great man! But I always knew Sachin Tendulkar since two years after my birth.

Who would know how Don Bradman would look at the one day game, if he were young and he would play it? So Sachin Tendulkar's cricket coincided with the proliferation of the One Day format and it is surprising that Twenty 20 has not had much impact on him. The twenty 20 format of the game can be ranked much below the willowing skills of the master!

The younger players of the Indian team who put up very good occasional shows are much humbled by the presence of the God before them. They know the caliber of the man.

To me, I understand that Bhajji's remarks come as a backlash against the Australian fraternity with whom he has had the worst of tiffs with. It is not only the chancing upon on the evolution of the game that has made the little man great!

It is love, passion and ability all intertwined to make Sachin Tendulkar the God!
