LONDON: India's cricket icon Sachin Tendulkar plans to support charities(दान) and various initiatives to help the under-privileged(विशेषाधिकार प्राप्त)  people in the second innings of his life. Tendulkar, 44, made the remarks here while receiving the Fellowship Award at the 7th annual Asian Awards last night. He said playing for India for 24 years was a memorable(अविस्मरणीय) journey and winning the world cup was icing on the cake. 

Now in the second chapter of his life he plans to support charities and various initiatives(पहल) to help the under-privileged people. Providing solar lights to poor people in India was one of them, Tendulkar said.  He called on the stage 8-year-old Hollywood star Sunny Pawar and said, "when I was his age, my dream was to play cricket for India." Hollywood child actor Pawar earlier won the Rising Star award for his role in the film 'Lion'
