“That day, I saw Sachin Tendulkar dancing for the first time. The first time he didn’t care about the people around him, and he was enjoying it with everyone, I will always remember that,” the off-spinner said on Star Sports’ Cricket Connect’ show.
“When I woke up that night, I remember sleeping with my medal. I had a medal on it, and it felt great,” Harbhajan said.
