Sachin Tendulkar often gives fans a glimpse into his life beyond cricket through his Instagram posts. From enjoying regional delicacies during his travels to sharing food-related moments, the batting legend regularly keeps his followers updated with snippets from his everyday routine. This time, Sachin posted a simple video that revealed one morning ritual he has been following since his playing days. In the video, Sachin is seen boiling water in a kettle before dipping a green tea bag into a mug to prepare his morning tea. As he makes the tea, he shares why this small routine has remained unchanged over the years.
"Every morning I did this, even during my playing days. I would make my own tea in the room because the last thing that I wanted was someone coming to the room and saying, 'Sir, your tea is ready.' I like making things on my own," he says.
He further adds, "Back when I used to play, before a match, I didn't want anyone to enter my room. Even at home, I like making my own stuff. It is peaceful and enjoyable."

Back in May 2026, the former cricketer showed his fans how to fold ukadiche modak at home. In the video, the 53-year-old can be seen standing in his kitchen and demonstrating the process. He first took one flattened modak dough and added a spoonful of filling. He can then be seen folding it into a classic modak shape. Calling it one of the "best desserts," Tendulkar also made his mother taste his handmade modaks.
