Friends? If you get a situation to save any one of the two, whom will you save. Sachin Tendulkar or a Soldier.

I doubt if we ever come across such a situation, but if at all there is such an eventuality, circumstances will decide about the one who will be saved, not us!

Yes I agree with you. Moreover I just want to know casually if there are two people in a situation of help,- one is a celebrity and another one is a soldier, whom public should come forth to help.

One thought hit my mind the other day. It was all about Sachin Tendulkar and our brave soldiers. The question is still unsolved in my mind. The question is “No doubt Sachin is one of the greatest batsman in the world, but the fame, name and wealth he got, is that justified, does he deserve?” He only hits the ball with the bat, but what about those soldiers on the border who gave their lives to save us. Unfortunately, few of us know about them. Can you remember the name of even one who died in Kargil War, 1999? Why don’t they get such a fame, name and wealth? Isn’t this injustice to them?

It is the media's and people's fascination with cricket that transforms an ordinary mortal into a 'god', a more than lifesize hero. There are heroes in other fields of sports and the heroes at the border who protect us by giving their blood and life. Few like to focus their cameras on them.

Very well written. It is the media which has made them auspicious. Even the celebrities feel uneasy to come out of their houses due to such a strong publicity.

It's a misconception that media is creating celebrities. Are you saying Sachin owes his greatness to media?

There are many people who are best and genius but they are not celebrities. If media do not focus on them and let people know about them, nobody will ever come to know about their work and achievements. Likewise, defence affairs are kept secret. We do not know what's going on at the Boarder. Who are the soldiers and what happened to them? Hence we don't know their name. Their is no such publicities.
