Following the successful landing of Chandrayaan-3 on the Moon, cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar tweeted, "India must celebrate and congratulate the Chandrayaan-2 team, which was led by Shri K Sivan, along with Shri S Somanath’s Chandrayaan-3 team." He added, "Every hard landing has lessons which take us closer to a soft landing - on the moon, and in life."
