FAKE NEWS! Sara Tendulkar is not on X and didn’t wish Shubman Gill on the social media platform

Meanwhile, on social media, the limelight was on Shubman Gill, as he allegedly received a message from Sara Tendulkar, daughter of legend Sachin Tendulkar. There have been rumors floating around that the two youngsters are dating. Sara, previously, had posted stories on Instagram during IPL 2023 when Gill hammered centuries in the tournament.

Among the many messages was a tweet allegedly from an account named ‘Sara Tendulkar’, which boasts over 60,000 followers. The account shared a picture of Gill in India’s World Cup jersey with the caption “Get well soon, #ShubmanGill,” accompanied by a blue heart and Indian flag.

It is well known that Sara Tendulkar only uses Instagram for social media purposes and that she does not formally use X (formerly Twitter). She has a sizable fan base on Instagram and frequently posts images from her private life.

The fact that neither Shubman nor Sara have officially acknowledged their romance or responded to the persistent rumors should not be overlooked.
