Talking to Times Now Shiv Sena chief Bal Thackeray once again targeted Sachin Tendulkar, and this time with a more serious allegation which no Sachin fan or even any cricket fan will agree at. In an interview Thackeray is still not able to digest Sachin’s statement that Mumbai belonged to the country. He quoted - “I will not tolerate, whoever he may be, I will not tolerate that nonsense,” he said, noting the cricketer wasn’t even born when he fought for Mumbai on the sons of the soil plank.
When told that Sachin can’t be accused of playing only for money, he retorted: “Don’t give so much of guarantee. If you need money for something, he will give you a bat. Then it gets auctioned and the money is deposited.”
I really felt bad after reading these statements in newspapers, not for Sachin but for Bal Thackeray! The old man must have got cursed from millions of Sachin Tendulkar's fans! Get well soon Mr. Thackeray!!
