If you are complaining about things you don’t have, trust me, even at 80 you will be doing the same and life will pass you by. Each one has his own share. God fixes a quota of things for everyone. You can’t have everything always. It is important to make the most of what is allotted to you. I have enjoyed every stage of my life. I am happy where I am, and thankful to God for blessing me with so much."

During his farewell speech at the Wankhede Stadium in 2013, an emotional Sachin Tendulkar had thanked his wife and had stated, “I know Anjali being a doctor, there was a wonderful career in front of her. When we decided to have a family, Anjali decided to step back and say ‘you continue with your cricket and I’ll take responsibility of the family’. Without that, I don’t think I would have been able to play cricket freely and without any stress. Thanks for bearing with all my fuss and frustrations and all sorts of rubbish I’ve spoken. You’re the best partnership I’ve had in my life.” (Recommended Read: Shilpa Shetty Shares Video Of Samisha's First Ghaghra Choli As Family Plans To Twin For Ganesh Puja)
