Amitabh Bachchan and Sachin Tendulkar: On the same boat !

Sachin Tendulkar is often questioned by a herd of media men as to when would he hang up his boots. He is often pestered by all as to why isn’t he calling it quits now that he has achieved everything or now that he is inching towards 40s. And instead of answering them with his mouth, he simply strikes double centuries and tells them blatantly the answer- ‘that’s because I am still the best.’

Similar, is the case with Mr. Amitabh Bachchan, the Bollywood legend who is often hounded by retirement questions. But does he need to prove that he is still waiting for his true successor? Last week, he stood tallest as he bagged his 4th National Awards for his magnificent, playful role of a progeria patient in Paa.

And speaking of his retirement, he posted on his blog, that though he is often asked frequently ‘has he not done enough’, he feels that he still needs to work as much more needs to be done.

So, Amitabh and Sachin are both on the same boat journeying towards immortality. Both may have etched themselves on our minds but neither is ready to give up his throne coz there is no none to challenge their reigns.
