Sachin Tendulkar, one of the kindest cricketer ever to play the game (bowlers may not agree), turned into a Santa Claus on the occasion of Christmas to surprise the kids at Ashray Child Care Centre.

Sachin walked in with lots of gifts for the kids. The gifts had sports equipment like badminton, bat, football etc among the kids. He also played cricket with the kids to make their day special.

He shared a video of himself and wrote, “Ho..Ho..Ho... Merry Christmas to all of you! Just amazing to be with these young ones at Ashray Child Care Centre. The joy on their innocent faces was just priceless! #BecomingSanta #MerryChristmas.”

Kids were overjoyed seeing the Indian cricket icon making his way into the room. Here is the video:
