Tendulkar's Ghibli Filter: A Dreamy Dive into Cricket History!

Cricket great Sachin Tendulkar thrilled fans on March 27, 2025, as he shared India's legendary 2011 World Cup win in Ghibli-inspired photos. Employing a widely used filter that emulates the magical look of Studio Ghibli, Tendulkar took to the platform and uploaded two iconic moments: being carried on the shoulders of players and his celebratory stance before Mumbai's Gateway of India. His witty captions and the artistic works impressed fans, who acclaimed him as the "winner of the trend" on social media.

 

Tendulkar's post recalls an important moment in Indian cricket history when the team defeated Sri Lanka and won their second World Cup in 28 years. The win was more special to Tendulkar, as it marked the achievement of a childhood dream after having made five other attempts. Other players, including Yuvraj Singh and Suresh Raina, shared memories of that special day along with him, triggering much more nostalgia in cricket fans.

 

As fans participate in the Ghibli filter trend, Tendulkar's mix of cricket and animation painting demonstrates his lasting impact on sport and popular culture.
