Sachin Tendulkar shared glimpses of his snowy holiday in Gulmarg and other parts of Kashmir with his wife Anjali and daughter Sara.
Writing about his experience on X, Mr Tendulkar said, “Jammu and Kashmir will remain a beautiful experience etched in my memory. There was snow all around but we felt warm because of people's exceptional hospitality.”
Echoing the sentiments of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, he said, “Hon'ble Prime Minister Narendra Modi ji said there is so much to see in our nation. Couldn't agree more, especially after this trip.”
He continued, “The Kashmir Willow bats are great examples of "make-in-India, make for the world". They have travelled across the globe, and now I recommend people across the globe, and India, to come and experience Jammu and Kashmir, one of the several jewels of @incredibleindia.”
