Coldplay’s Chris Martin and cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar were seen sharing a lighthearted moment at the Sachin Tendulkar Foundation (STF) event in Mumbai on Wednesday. The event marked five years of the foundation’s efforts to support underprivileged children through sports, health, and education initiatives.
The theme of the evening, ‘Shine Brighter Together’, aimed at the foundation’s commitment to creating a meaningful impact. Sachin Tendulkar took to the official STF page to share his thoughts on the milestone, writing, ‘Five years into this journey of making sports, health, and education accessible, we reflect on how far we’ve come. It’s still early days, yet we’re proud of the progress made, thanks to an incredible set of partners who share our vision.’
Expressing his gratitude, he added, ‘Thank you to all the well-wishers who joined us, including Chris Martin, for making this milestone special. Together, we aspire to scale greater heights and continue to #5hineBrighterTogether.’
A video from the event that quickly went viral on social media shows Chris Martin placing his hand on Sachin’s shoulder as they share a fun conversation. Fans were thrilled to see the camaraderie between the music icon and the cricket legend.
This meeting comes just days after Sachin was spotted attending Coldplay’s concert in Mumbai with his wife Anjali and daughter Sara. Several videos surfaced online showing enthusiastic fans cheering for the cricketer at the event. Sachin also acknowledged the crowd by waving back.
During the concert, Chris Martin won hearts by reading out placards held by fans. One notable moment was when he said ‘Jai Shri Ram,’ after spotting a sign in the audience. Before the show, Martin and his partner, actor Dakota Johnson, visited the iconic Shri Babulnath Temple in Mumbai.
Additionally, Chris gave a special mention to Indian cricketer Jasprit Bumrah during the concert. In a humorous moment, he said, ‘Hold on, we have to finish the show because Jasprit Bumrah wants to come and play backstage. He says he needs to bowl at me now.’ Though Bumrah did not appear, the reference delighted the crowd.
The concert also featured Indian singer Jasleen Royal, who performed alongside Chris Martin, making the night even more memorable for the fans.
