Cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar had a word of advice to a woman riding pillion on a motorcycle in the capital city, asking her to wear a helmet. The Master Blaster took to Facebook by uploading a video which has gone viral. Tendulkar is seen asking the young couple to make wearing helmets a habit.
Stopping his car, Tendulkar tells the woman "wear helmet at the back also. Why should the rider be wearing a helmet? you should also be wearing a helmet. You can get injured."
In a tweet, he said, "Rider or pillion, both lives matter equally. Please, please make wearing helmets a habit. Just my opinion #HelmetDaalo#RoadSafety".
