November 23 is the birth anniversary of Shri Sathya Saibaba. Way back in 2011 on April 24, Master Blaster Sachin Tendulkar lost the physical presence of his divine master Baba. This was a bolt from the blue for this great cricketer for he used to seek solace from his Guru in times of his crisis.

This was an unforeseen, unfortunate incident that left a deep pain in his life. Incidentally, that day happened to be Sachin's birthday. Soon as he learnt that his master was no more, he refused to celebrate his birthday. He finished his match and rushed to Puttaparthy to pay his last respects to the departed soul. That was the day one got to see the emotional side of the little master. Sachin wept uncontrollably unable to bear the physical separation from his guru.

The touching scene was telecast live in all media channels. There were also reports that Sachin was not himself after he learnt of his Guru's death and that he confined himself to his hotel room. Reportedly, a Do Not Disturb sign hung on the door of his room. This reflects how much Sachin was attached to his mentor.
