Sachin Tendulkar considered to be the ‘Don Bradman’ of the modern era turns 35 today. Born on April 24 1973 in Mumbai Sachin has played 147 Test Matches with 11782 runs and 417 ODIs with more than 16000 runs and stays unmatchable. He made his test debut in 1989 when he was 16 and is considered as one of the greats who have ever played the game of cricket. As a die-hard fan of Sachin I feel honored to write about him in my first blog. I wish him to recover soon from his groin injury and wish him all glory and success in his life. The greatest icon is considered as on the Gentle Man who ever existed in the game of cricket. Blessed with lot of cricketing talents Sachin is a humble man.

Bob Marley the Jamican Legend, I came to know about him just months back. I happen to hear him in a party, came know about his life through some of my French and Brazilian friends. I am impressed, why not? He is known widely for performing reggae music. Born on Feb 6, 1945 for a white father and black mother he faced racial abuse through out his youth. At the age of 17 in 1962 he did his first recording and unfortunately it didnt do well for him. The he formed a local band called Wailing Wailers along with his friend Bunny and Peter Tosh. He became a song writer by his first maiden songs “It hurts to be alone” and “Rule the roadie”. At the age of 21 he got married to Rita Anderson and left to united states with his Mother to make money to finance his music. He came back and did some recordings with his Wailing Wailers but nothing brought him good luck.
