Iconic Indian cricketer Sachin Tendulkar, a devotee of the late Sathya Sai Baba, on Monday paid his last respects to the godman who died on Sunday. The 38-year-old Tendulkar skipped his birthday celebrations to mourn the death of Sai Baba, who battled multiple-organ failure before breathing his last at 85 years of age.

The batsman was accompanied by his wife Anjali during his visit to the Sai Kulwant Hall in Prashanti Nilayam in Ananthapur. The couple was moved to tears upon arriving at the hall where they sat for a while before driving off.
