'Request Sachin To Spend Time With My Family', Taj Worker Whose Advice Changed Tendulkar's Game
Taj Hotels found the employee Sachin Tendulkar was looking for. The latter took to social media to ask for people’s help in finding a staff member of Taj Hotels, whose insightful piece of advice changed his game. And now, the Chennai man, Guruprasad, has expressed his emotions at being remembered by the God of cricket.
Guruprasad told ANI, "Fans are interested to meet such a great person and here, such a great master is willing to meet me. It is very exciting. The place where I live, people and my friends here are more excited and want to meet Sachin. So, I request Sachin to meet me personally and spend time with my family."
Guruprasad was not a waiter at the hotel, as Sachin was mistaken, but a security guard when he gave Sachin the suggestion about his elbow guard.
"During that period, I was working as a security guard. Sachin was just coming out of his room and near the lift, I met him and I got an autograph. After that, I had a suggestion for him and it was in my mind for many months. Sachin was getting out because of his arm-guard," he told ANI.
He further said, "...When you watch Sachin closely, he uses his wrist in such a way that is very important for him. When you face fast bowlers, they attack a particular point and if you are not placing the guard correctly, the timing and all will get wrong. He asked me how you know this thing and I said I was just watching you on the television and I feel that the guard is affecting the full movement.
Taj Hotel has already offered to arrange the meeting between the two.
