See the similarities between the two: 1. Sachin made his debut in 1989 around the same time SRK came to Mumbai from Delhi to start on his first film 2. Sachin became an icon in 1996 after Bradman's praise...SRK became a true superstar in 1996 with DDLJ's roaring success 3. One is icon of cricket and the other is icon of Hindi movies in the same era...2 of the favourite pastimes of indians 4. Kapil the previous superstar of cricket has criticized Sachin unfairly, same can be said abt Amitabh as there is needless coldwar between him and SRK 5. Both Sachin and Shahrukh did love marraige 6. Both have 2 children - one boy and one girl 7. Both are hated in rediff and many other blogs purely out of jealousy of their popularity 8. Both hit back at their critics each time they signal the end of their success....Sachin today and SRK a few days back with Om Shanti Om

thats bull what u r writing....
1. Sachin also has same strokes...same cover drives same drive on the V same inside out shot same paddle sweep...but his fans love it again and again just like SRK fans love his repeptetive style which is what makes him the star 2. SRK only INdian fans??/ ha ha ha..he was the first indian actor to popularise the craze for hindi movies in USA and UK...similar to Sachin being the first Indian cricketer to get praises from outsiders like aussie warne and mcgrath and donald 3. indian cricket is dependent on sachin as well as yuvraj, dhoni, dravid in tests, ganguly too sometimes same way as akshay, aamir etc also run the show,....but king khan remains the best as does master blaster sachin even though both are always compared with their younger contemporaries u have contradicted ur own point...all ur points imply more similarity between the two than differences...ha ha ha

There are many important differences: SRT is original, srk is copy cat, copies others styles. SRT does not need publicity, srk goes to SRT's matches to give publicity to his movies. SRT loves India, srk we don't know.When a tv reporter asked srk after India-Pak 20-20 final, which team's win will make him happy, he said,HE WILL BE HAPPY IF ANY TEAM WINS-SRT would never say that!!
Lastly, SRT married a girl from his own community, with the blessing of the girls family, srk instead married a Hindu girl, and has forced islam on his children, says that he only beleives in islam.
SRT is God, srk to me is gundee nalee kaa makauraa.

I dont agree Mr.God... SRK is the biggest Indian Star abroad. All his flops in India, have given huge profits the producers from the Foreign markets. And SRK and Rajnikanth are the most bankable stars in India today. Remember Neha Dhupia saying "In India, only two things sell, Sex and Shah Rukh"
NO SUCH PRAISE IS ENOUGH FOR SACHIN TENDULKAR, BUT THE REAL PRAISE WOULD BE, WHEN GREG CHAPPEL AND IAN CHAPPEL WILL BE HANGED PUBLICLY DUE TO THEIR CROOCKED COMMENT ON SACHIN TENDULKAR.

Hey you wake up what r u writing or are you drinking or what. Be careful hello.........
Hey guys do not worry Sachin's 100's will increase, both in ODI's and test matches because he has around 4 years atleast. But for the record, he already rules billions of hearts, of all the cricket playing nations, and also those nations who will take to playing cricket in decades to come. Most importantly not only is he a master because of the runs he scores, and the manners in which he gets them, (some times slowly because the situation dictates it and sometimes fast because he dictates the situation), but also because he is a great ambassador for the game, great ambassador for India. Always remember for all the records he has created every Indian has been made proud and happy, he has made people forget their daily chores, their daily grind, and made millions of Indians feel a belief in themselves. Most importantly even after achieving so much he remains a keen student of the game, he remains the same gentle and friendly person, always smiling, playing for the country and trying to bring more and more laurels to the country. GREAT MAN AROUND US AND WE ARE PROUD OF HIM. May GOD bless him with more centuries and runs because decades later when people will talk about him they will say INDIAN SACHIN TENDULKAR WAS AMONG THE GREATEST BATSMAN CRICKET HAS EVER SEEN, and hearing this will again bring smiles on our faces, and may be tears of joy. GOD BLESS SACHIN and this again a selfish prayer because we all want him to play and score, runs and victories.
I wish sachin to play as if he is playing normally. Once Gavaskar told that he was not seeing the score board while batting. He can follow that to score his 42nd century. Gnanaguru

why do u people always think of A should go or B should go? Is ur cricketing sense restricted to only one series performances????? goodness gracious u r not a selectors or else by now indian team would eb full of hi*ras...
Today it was a great innings by Sachin. It was a batting display which he used to show in his younger days. Watch the highlights of the match at stumpview.com
RE:Dravid can never equal SRT, even in his dreams.

do u have to put someone down to praise another? sachin is a living legend no doubt but he would be himself displeased and irritated by ur comment comparing him to another indian player...have some sense of professionalism
