Dearly called “God of Cricket”, Sachin Tendulkar, the man himself is an emotion in India, an epitome of the sportsmanship and a reflection of game spirits. Now, for a man of such an immense stature, it is very clear that anything regarding him can hit the mainstream media headlines easily, that might be on social media or journalistic aspects.
On a whole, Sachin has to deal with many loopholes of stardom in order to sustain a happy and normal life. But being a celebrity in a country like India has its disadvantages also as the cameras follow their families as well. This century-centuries man is now news for some other reason, and this time, it is about his daughter.
A 32-year-old man from Mahishadal in East Midnapore district in West Bengal has been arrested for allegedly stalking and harassing cricket icon Sachin Tendulkar’s daughter Sara Tendulkar. The stalker, identified as Debkumar Maity, had reportedly made 20 calls to Tendulkar’s residence and passed lewd comments about Sara and even threatened to kidnap her.
However, the person seems to be mentally unstable and will undergo a medical test now. Ever since the master blaster has retired from the game, the fans are eager about the careers of his children. While his son Arjun Tendulkar is an all-rounder and is impressing everyone in his early days in cricket, Sara seems to be specializing in a certain field.
Fans do excite and it is natural but they should never look into the personal things of celebrities, isn’t it?
Debkumar Maity is said to have made as many as 20 calls to Sachin Tendulkar’s Bandra residence and has threatened to kidnap her even proposing Sara for marriage. Though it is still unclear how the person managed to get hold of a landline number of Sachin’s home. Stalker’s family claimed that he is mentally unstable and will undergo a medical examination now.
“I saw her on tv sitting at the pavilion during a match and fell in love. I want to marry her. I fetched the landline number of Tendulkar and have called on it some 20 times. Have never seen her in person,” Debkumar Maity told police.
We had no idea how he got embroiled in this case. Even at home, he used to torture his parents. He lost his father recently. He has been undergoing medical treatment for his condition for last eight years,” said one of his relatives.

Sachin’s daughter lodged a complaint a while ago against the stalker and the police swung into the action straight away. The cops reportedly also used the location of nearby telephone towers from where he used to make the calls.
The accused used to work as a painter, but, for the last few years, was suffering from depression and had behavioral issues. It is yet to be ascertained how he got hold of the number to make calls at the Tendulkar residence.
