Kurippa perum pugazhum thalaikku poga koodathunu. I have grown up watching him play well, watching him fight for his self pride, watched his downfall as well as bounce back. Im really proud to be a Sachin fan.

I was one amongst those lakhs and lakhs of fans who were happy when sachin scored a double century. I wanted to write this in my blog last year, but if i have done so i would have missed to share with you the happiness i got when he scored a double century.

Kadaisiya, vaazhkaila naan santhikkanumnu nenaikarathu rende per thaan athula onnu sachin, innonu kavizhyar Vaali (athu yennu innoru post-la solren).

Aagayaal en birthday wish-udan mudiththuk kolgiren.

On his birthday i wanted to wish "Long live Sachin and Cricket".

P.S. Intha post muzhukka muzhukka en suyanalathirkkaagave ezhuthiya ondru. Aagayaal matravargal ithu mokkai-aaga irunthaal mannithuk kollungal. Thanglish-il ezhuthiyatharkkum oru kaaranam irukkirathu. Aduththa pathippil santhippom. Nandriyudan Harini Sree.
