The ‘Lagaan’ moment! When Sachin Tendulkar cheered for Aamir Khan

Aamir Khan’s ‘Lagaan’ is close to our heart! When he scored a wicket we cheered, when he missed a six, we slipped into depression. Well, let us tell you, it’s not just us whose heartbeats fluctuated while witnessing that iconic match of ‘Lagaan’ played between Indians and British in the film. The God of Cricket, Sachin Tendulkar had the same feelings.

So now we know that a film based on the life of Sachin Tendulkar is nearing its release. The cricketer is doing everything possible under the sun and the moon to create a buzz around ‘Sachin: A Billion Dreams’ and much to his delight, Aamir Khan has come out to promote this film. Taking to Twitter, Aamir recently shared a video wishing Sachin all the luck for this film. In the same video, Aamir has also revealed an episode from ‘Lagaan’ times. Apparently, when Sachin watched ‘Lagaan’, Aamir was seated right next to him and the actor was astonished to see how the legend of cricket reacted to the film. Aamir witnessed Sachin cheering for him while he was on-screen playing cricket, and this left him feeling quite proud of himself.
