Sachin: A Billion Dreams is a forthcoming
biographical movie written and directed by James Erskine and produced
by Ravi Bhagchandka and Carnival Motion Pictures under the banner 200 NotOut
Productions. The movie is based on the life of
Indian cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar.
In an interview with a famous tabloid,
Sachin told, "It’s a different feeling, obviously. But we
know that we have put in a lot of hard work. From our end, we’ve ticked all the
boxes. That’s what I used to do even when I played cricket. Pre-match, nobody
can guarantee the result, but as long as I was able to tick all the boxes for
pre-match preparations, it was okay with me. And that is the feeling right
now."
When questioned why should a non-Sachin fan to watch the
film? Explaining on it, the cricketer told, "There are a lot of things my
fans don’t know about me. With this film, they will get to know plenty about
me. There are a lot of videos from my personal collection — my family videos —
and those are interesting. For a non-Sachin fan, there’s a lot that they will
get to understand about me."
Ask him about will the movie focus on any particular aspect
of your life? He told, "It will cover all
aspects. The movie covers my life from the age of five till the last day of my
career — 35 years in all. So there are many things that have happened in those
years. At the same time, it is impossible to cover everything, so you are going
to miss out on a lot of things. That was a challenge, which I feel the director
James (Erskine) and his team, have done a magnificent job with."
Sachin confessed that he would want to
dedicate his movie to his father - Ramesh Tendulkar. He told,
"It’s, of course, my father (Ramesh Tendulkar) first, and then everyone
else in the family. He is the one person we all miss at this moment. It’s him
more than anyone right now."
Sachin Tendulkar confessed that he was anxious
about his mother and his children's reactions. "My children and my mother,
because that covers all generations in between. If both ends are okay then you know
that the guys in between, their reaction will be fine," Sachin told
and signed off.
