Sachin Tendulkar and Vinod Kambli were on Saturday together at a felicitation function, "Gaurav Guru Shishyancha" (in honour of mentor and disciple), with their coach Ramakant Achrekar, just days after Kambli's alleged remarks that the batting maestro did not help him during his days of struggle.
Kambli, in a television reality show, was reported to have accused his childhood friend Tendulkar of not supporting him when his cricket career was on the downslide.
Speaking on the occasion, Tendulkar attributed his success to Achrekar and said he taught him to be disciplined in life. Tendulkar said he was once slapped by Achrekar when, instead of batting for the school's B team, he cheered for his seniors from the sidelines.
Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) president Shashank Manohar was the chief guest at Saturday's event, organised by Thakre foundation.
Have your sayCricket lovers can't wait for Monday when Vinod Kambli will reveal everything on Sach ka Saamna.
