Tendulkar, who was admitted in a Mumbai hospital as a precautionary measure after he tested positive for COVID-19 late last month, had returned home on April 8 to begin his recuperation.
To all his well-wishers, he wrote on April 8: 'I have just come home from the hospital and will remain isolated while continuing to rest and recuperate. I would like to thank everyone for all the good wishes and prayers. Really appreciate it. I remain ever grateful to the medical staff who took such good care of me and have been working tirelessly for over a year in such difficult circumstances.'
