Former India cricketer Sachin Tendulkar and his wife Anjali voted in Bandra at around noon on Tuesday. After casting their ballot, Tendulkar spoke to the media and urged Mumbaikars to vote.

“Instead of complaining and being unhappy about the troubles, come out and vote. Bring in that change. My request is to come here and vote,” he said in both English and Marathi.

The former India captain, who is also a member of the Rajya Sabha, has always encouraged India to make a difference. During the 2014 Lok Sabha elections, Tendulkar urged his countrymen not to "underestimate" the power of their vote. "Every run counts in the game of cricket and every vote counts in an election. Don't underestimate the power of your vote."
