Vinod Kambli Sings at Event, Sachin Tendulkar’s Reaction Goes Viral
Former cricketers and childhood friends Vinod Kambli and Sachin Tendulkar reunited recently at an event held in Mumbai’s iconic Shivaji Park. The duo came together to commemorate the birth anniversary of their mentor and coach, Ramakant Achrekar, with the unveiling of a memorial in his honor. Both Sachin and Kambli were coached by Achrekar in their early cricketing days and famously set a world record with a 664-run partnership in school cricket.
While Sachin went on to become one of the greatest cricketers in the world, known for his discipline and determination, Kambli’s career took a different turn, with his lack of consistency and personal challenges leading to a premature end to his cricketing journey.
Now aged 51 and 52, respectively, Sachin and Kambli’s contrasting lifestyles are visibly evident. Sachin continues to maintain his fitness, while Kambli has faced health struggles. At the event, Kambli appeared older than his years and reportedly struggled even with basic movements. His speech also showed signs of difficulty, raising concerns among attendees.
During the program, Kambli sang a song, and a video of this moment has since gone viral on social media. In the video, Sachin’s reaction to his friend’s singing drew significant attention. Initially, Sachin appeared neutral, but later, he joined the crowd in applauding his friend, showcasing their enduring bond despite their vastly different life paths.
In a related incident, a recently viral video showed Kambli struggling to walk, which fueled speculation about his health. However, Kambli denied these concerns, stating that he is healthy and doing well.
