"We have some things that act as time machines for us. A song, a smell, a sound, a flavour. For me, it's something from my Father's childhood that always takes me on a trip down memory lane. On #FathersDay I want to share that special place with you all. Miss you always, Baba," Tendulkar tweeted a video.

Tendulkar shared a video in which he showed a 'priceless' thing that is very close to the legendary batsman.

"Today I want you all to see a special thing whose sentimental value is priceless for me. This seems to be a swing but it's a cradle in which my father grew up. My mother told me that if you make a swing out of it then you'll be able to use it," said Tendulkar in the video

"So it's very special to me and whenever I sit on this several thoughts keep coming in my heart and mind. I feel close to my father when I sit on the swing," he added.

Virender Sehwag too shared a Father’s Day tweet, “Love the cool acronyms from Hon. VP Naidu ji. Trying few: Bahut Affectionate Adorable Papa – BAAP. Dedicated and Devoted – DAD Faithful And Trustworthy Honouring Every Responsibility – FATHER”.
