There were many peak points as well as low points in Sachin 24-year-old journey in the Indian cricket team. The cricket as a game grounded Sachin and made him a better person. The first cricket bat was gifted to him by his sister after she came back from a trip to Kashmir. Sachin is said to have broken a lot of windows while he played with his friends. Sachin is shown to be a young bully who made pit traps and releases the air from neighbour’s car tires. We also get to see home videos and videos of the players in the dressing room along with interviews of Sachin’s family members.
#WATCH SACHIN A BILLION DREAMS FULL#
I am glad that the film came out in theatres because it was indeed an experience to watch it with an audience full of young men and women. This is the first documentary I am watching from the multiplex. People still shouted “Sachin… Sachin…” as he left the 22 yards. He voluntarily retired in 2013 in the same stadium where he began his cricketing career. He had to wait for 22 years to finally achieve his ultimate dream something, something he rooted for since 1983 when he was just 10-years-old when he went to sleep dreaming of him holding the Worldcup. Sachin has been through a lot during his tumultuous yet thrilling career as a cricketer. One of the best features of Sachin as a person is humble down-to-earth nature and love for his family.
Cricket team looks incomplete without his presence. In 2013, the nation shed tears when he bid his goodbye to the 22 yards. When Sachin bats, the nation holds its breath. I grew up screaming “Sachin… Sachin…” while watching him fight for a century. He is my childhood icon, I grew up watching his energy on television. This is the one piece I am writing as a fangirl than a critic… ?
