Lata MangeshkarNamaskar. Jis pal ka intezaar saare vishwa ko tha, aaj usi pal ko humne aaj saakar hote hue dekha hai. Sachin ne hamare mahaan desh ki mahaanta ko aur badhaaya hai aur Bharat ki Shaan mein chaar-chaand lagaye hain. Main Sachin ka manapurvak abhinandan karti hoon aur unhe bahut-bahut aashiwaad deti hoon.
