Honey, they shrunk Sachin!

July 15, 2008

Last week, by all accounts, Pepsi decided to drop Sachin -- Tendulkar, one of the best cricketers ever -- as its brand ambassador by not renewing their contract.

Pepsi has maintained a steadfast silence on the matter, offering a stout "no comments," but nearly everyone believes that the beverages and snack food maker has joined a growing list of companies dissociating themselves with the 35-year-old batsman; Fiat, TVS and Airtel already have.
