Tendulkar clarified the misunderstanding and also ensured that his legal team will take necessary actions against the brand 'Big Daddy'. The brand, located in Goa, offers services in casinos. Sachin Tendulkar announced on Twitter, "While my legal team will be taking the required action, I felt it was important for me to share this information with everyone." The brand used Tendulkar's images to endorse their casino. He also urged his fans to stay observant and not believe in such unforeseen things.
The former captain stressed out with such narrow-minded decisions to mislead people. The Master Blaster wrote, "It has come to my notice that there are multiple ads being shown on social media platforms, with a morphed photo showing me endorsing a casino. I have never endorsed gambling, tobacco or alcohol – directly or indirectly, in an individual capacity. It pains to see that my images are being used to mislead people."
