9999 is Sachin’s lucky number
Sachin Tendulkar loves numbers. The man who has over 32, 000 runs in international cricket, while selling his red coloured Ferrari Modena 360 to a friend in Surat, has retained his lucky number plate MH01 AD 9999. This was revealed by the Asstt. Regional Transport Officer, A.S. Khairulla.
Speaking exclusively, the RT officer said, “Sachin Tendulkar made a special request and paid the government notified fee of `50,000 for the VIP number-plate and retained his old car number plate.”
“Sachin Tendulkar sent his representative with a letter and a demand draft (Kotak Mahindra Bank) of `50,000 for the transfer of his car,” the officer added.
The little master as widely reported is an ardent follower of the teachings of Sri Satya Sai Baba. The Baba believed that the number nine is the perfect number as no matter how many times you multiply it, it will add up to nine. Called the Brahman number (the Eternal Absolute), nine is considered all-powerful. Our source said, “It’s no surprise how nine and its multiples are lucky for Sachin since he follows the Baba’s teachings so closely.”
“This is to inform you that I have sold my Ferrari Car to Jayesh Kumar Batukrai Desai, and am requesting you to retain the same number plate for my new car. I am ready to pay `50,000 as RTO fees”, Sachin wrote in his letter (seen by this paper).
Sachin Tendulkar had to buy his new car within 30 days. “His fee for the VIP number-plate will be valid for 30 days. His new super car, a red Nissan GT-R has not yet been brought for registration to this office”, the official added further.
“New buyer of his old car had to submit a No Objection Certificate (NOC) for Sachin’s request to retain the old number plate. We gave new number (MH02 AV 4722) to the new owner”. Jayesh Desai will get his Ferrari registered in Surat RTO and will get another new number.
