On the occasion of his mother`s birthday, Sachin wrote, “I was born from your womb, that`s why I was formed. It was your blessing. That`s why I kept progressing. You are steadfast. That`s why we all remained steadfast. Happy Birthday, Mom!”. Taking to X:
तुझ्या पोटी जन्माला आलो, म्हणून मी घडलो
तुझा आशीर्वाद होता
म्हणून मी प्रगती करत राहिलो
तू खंबीर आहेस
म्हणूनच आम्ही सगळे खंबीर राहिलो

In the picture, Sachin and his entire family are seen celebrating the birthday of his mother, Rajni. The former cricketer had once shared the moment when his mother saw him don the Indian whites for the first and last time in person.
Sachin said that he requested the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) to schedule his last Test match in his home ground, Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. The board agreed to his request, and that was the first and last time his mother saw him play in person.

According to sources, the engagement was a private affair which was attended only by close family and friends from both sides.
