Half the reason for cricket having become a religion in India is Sachin Tendulkar. The entire nation is mourning his retirement, across ages, statures, caste and creed. Taking this distinct moment, Aamir Khan has given an announcement. Known for his versatility in handling commercial as well as offbeat stories simultaneously, the 'Lagaan' hero is an ardent fan of Sachin Tendulkar like any other of us.

The actor expressed his disappointment, like rest of the nation's, over the retirement of Master Blaster, and further added that he wishes to don the role of the legend. "If there is a movie made on Tendulkar's life, then I would like to do the role of the Master Blaster. Just like the rest of the country, I am a die-hard fan of Sachin Tendulkar and he is my role model of sorts. It will be an honour to play his role on screen" says Aamir
