A fan account of Sachin posted the video clip of Amitabh Bachchan praising him, and the ex-cricketer reacted to it.
Sachin saw the video and thanked the actor. He wrote, "Thanks for your kind words @SrBachchan ji. I grew up watching your movies & still do. Your passion, greatness & longevity in career amazes me. You are truly an inspiration to every kid growing up just like you continue to be for me.????????".
