International Mother’s Day is a special occasion celebrated on the second Sunday of May every year. So this year it is celebrated on May 9th. On this special occasion, cricketing stars celebrated it by extending their wishes on social media.
Sachin shared pictures of himself with his mother and aunt with whom he spent four years while he was in school.
“Mothers are the ones who pray for you no matter how old you get. For them, you are always their child. Blessed to have two mothers in my life who have nurtured and loved me always,” Tendulkar wrote.
“Wishing Aai and Kaku a Very Happy Mother’s Day,” he added

Hard-hitting India opener Virender Sehwag wrote an emotional poem in Hindi for his mother.
घुटनों से रेंगते रेंगते
कब पैरों पर खड़ा हुआ,
तेरी ममता की छाओं में
जाने कब बड़ा हुआ!
काला टीका दूध मलाई
आज भी सब कुछ वैसा है,
मैं ही मैं हूँ हर जगह
प्यार यह तेरा कैसा है?
सीधा साधा भोला भाला
मैं ही सबसे अच्छा हूँ,
कितना भी हो जाऊं बड़ा
माँ, मैं आज भी तेरा बच्चा हूँ! #MothersDay pic.twitter.com/akY97tZaVs— Virender Sehwag (@virendersehwag) May 9, 2021
