Ever since Arjun Tendulkar was picked up by the Mumbai Indians at the Indian Premier League (IPL) mega auction last year, fans were eagerly waiting to see his debut. They had to wait one season, but Sachin Tendulkar's son finally played his first IPL game on Sunday for the Mumbai Indians. He made his debut against Kolkata Knight Riders. As Arjun Tendulkar made his debut, Sachin Tendulkar was present in the Mumbai Indians dugout, and sister Sara Tendulkar was present in the stands. 

Kolkata Knight Riders co-owner Shah Rukh Khan on Monday took to Twitter to congratulate Sachin Tendulkar.

"As competitive as this IPL may be… but  when u see a friends son #ArjunTendulkar take the field it is a matter of such happiness and joy. Wish Arjun all the best and @sachin_rt what a proud moment!! Wow," tweeted Shah Rukh Khan.

It was Rohit Sharma who handed Arjun Tendulkar his debut cap. As soon as he received the cap, the entire Wankhede crowd cheered. 

In a video shared by Mumbai Indians, Sachin Tendulkar said: "It was a new experience for me as till now I have not gone and watched him play. I just wanted him to have the freedom to go out and express himself and do what he wanted to do.”

Mumbai Indians defeated Kolkata Knight Riders on Sunday by five wickets.
