Accompanied by his wife Anjali, the legendary cricketer reached Prashanthi Nilayam in the morning. As the couple approached the coffin where the Baba body was kept for public darshan, Sachin struggled hard to hold back his tears.
Those who accompanied him had to console him. Later, the couple sat silently for a while and participated in prayer. Earlier, Sachin, an ardent devotee of Baba, had cancelled his birthday celebrations on Sunday as a mark of respect for the departed spiritual guru.
However, he played the IPL match in Hyderabad, steering his Mumbai Indians team to victory against Deccan Chargers. Ever since checking in to Hotel Grand Kakatiya, he confined himself to the room along with his family members. A `Do Not Disturb` sign was hung on his hotel room door since the news of Baba demise came and he did not even meet his teammates before the match.
