**MUMBAI, INDIA** – Arjun Tendulkar, son of cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar and a Mumbai Indians player, has taken to social media to appeal for a loving home for an orphaned puppy. The young cricketer, purchased by the Mumbai Indians for ₹30 lakh in the IPL 2025 mega auction, shared a picture of the puppy, named Bholu, on his Instagram story, explaining that Bholu’s mother has passed away and that the current family caring for him lacks experience with pet ownership.
Tendulkar, who has a fondness for dogs and often shares pictures of his own pets online, is personally invested in finding a suitable home for Bholu. While he has yet to secure a significant amount of playing time in the IPL (only five matches in 2023, with 3 wickets and 13 runs), his off-field actions have demonstrated his compassionate nature. The appeal highlights Tendulkar’s commitment beyond the cricket field, showcasing a different side to the young cricketer. The post’s success in finding Bholu a new home remains to be seen.
