The coronavirus has ruined the festive mood of the country. Most of them cannot visit their brothers and sisters living in another city since there is a lockdown in the country owing to the outburst of the virus. Same is the case with Sachin Tendulkar who took to social media and posted old pictures of himself celebrating the auspicious day with his sister Savita. In the caption, he also mentioned that the Raksha Bandhan this year is a little different owing to the temporary distance. Raksha Bandhan 2020: Kolkata Knight Riders’ Players Shubman Gill, Kuldeep Yadav and Others Celebrate Rakhi Festival with Their Sisters (View Pics).

The movements, for now, are limited and not many people step out of their houses unless an emergency. Check out the pictures shared by the Master Blaster.
