He is now a part of Bigg Boss 12 and while speaking to one of his housemate Anup Jalota, Sreesanth recalled an incident where Master Blaster Sachin Tendulkar left him teary-eyed.

“I want to share one incident related to Sachin Tendulkar. 1-2 years after our 2011 World Cup triumph, an interview was going on. The interviewer asked about everyone. 2011 you guys played well taking all players' names but not mine. When the interview was about to end, Sachin Tendulkar prompted my name saying Sreesanth also played a major role. I cried a lot during that time,” he said to Jalota. Bigg Boss 12: Sreesanth Makes Dipika Kakar Cry, Anup Jalota Is Against Girlfriend Jasleen Matharu - Watch Video.
