In a function oriented by Andra badminton association Cricket Legend Sachin Tendulkar gave a brand new BMW car for winning a bronze medal at the London Olympics and a car each for her coach P Gopichand and budding talent PV Sindhu.
Saina nehwal was the first one from India to reach the semifinal in Olymic badminton for India.Although she lost in semifinal she secured the bronze.
Sachin said that "I am sure that she (Saina) is happy but not satisfied. We are also not satisfied because we know that you can go to greater heights.There are better days ahead and as a sportsperson, you always try to believe that your best is yet to come,"
Saina said that she had the dreamt of Olympic medal from age of 9 and shehave now achieved it, she also thanked coach,Gopichand for this victory.
It is good that Sachin gave BMW to Saina, but i think he should give this to other medal winners also...

Its good to see Sachin promoting other sports.
Saina got a New BMW car.
Yes it would have more nice if all the medal winners some gift. I think Sachin love Badminton.
He has been invited to the ceremony, then he presented the gift to Saina, other medal winners was not there...

Yes it is indeed a good news. This is the reason why we all love Sachin Tendulkar. He is not just a cricket player for us, he is something more than just a player

Yes, it is good to see sportspersons from other spheres also getting their fair share of fame. I think it is important to honor our Olympians. But then these are just silvers and bronzes and there is still more work to do for the gold. So players need to enjoy this moment for say another month or so and then get back to planning and practicing for Rio.
Cheers!
