A mischievous, prankster of a little boy grew up to be one of the most focused, legendary cricketers that the world has ever seen. That’s what sums up ‘Sachin: A Billion Dreams’ for me.
DISCLAIMER: Major spoilers ahead, but then it’s nothing that you don’t already know! Sachin emerged as a child prodigy and hence, his life has never been in wraps.
While the movie shied away from highlighting/questioning some very crucial points of Little Master’s life, one can not negate the fact that ‘Sachin: A Billion Dreams’ is indeed a great flick.
The very first shot of a stadium full of crowd cheering “Sachin… Sachin!” gives you goosebumps!
The familiarity of events in Sachin’s life, the excitement of the legend himself talking about his life, the private clips from golden moments in his life and finally the story of his hard work and focus, is what moves you!
