His amazing story has now been turned into a major film, \u003cb\u003eA Billion Dreams\u003c\/b\u003e, in which he stars.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe greatest run-scorer in the history of cricket\u003c\/em\u003e, Sachin Tendulkar retired in 2013 after an astonishing 24 years at the top. The most celebrated Indian cricketer of all time, he received the Bharat Ratna Award—India's highest civilian honour—on the day of his retirement. Now Sachin Tendulkar tells his own remarkable story—from his \u003cb\u003efirst Test cap at the age of 16\u003c\/b\u003e to his 100th international century and the \u003cb\u003eemotional final farewell that brought his country to a standstill.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhen a boisterous Mumbai youngster's excess energies were channelled into cricket, the result was record-breaking schoolboy batting exploits that launched the career of a \u003cb\u003ecricketing phenomenon\u003c\/b\u003e.
