In 1993 amid the growing communal unrest right after the Mumbai blast, a family travelling in a car was cornered by a violent mob. A man who was living in the apartment right across the street, got informed about this situation. (1/n)
Accompanied by his friend he rushed to the scene and stood in defense of the family. He challenged the mob that they would have to deal with him first before laying a finger on the family. (2/n)
The situation was soon under control and the mob dispersed eventually. That 5'5" man standing with his friend between the mob and the helpless family that day, was Sunil Gavaskar.
A person who used his privilege to save the lives of innocents. (3/n)
Thankfully this was not the other Little Master who wouldn't have intervened in the Internal Matter between a lynch mob and a family which was already on its way to an amicable solution. (n/n)
