Sachin Tendulkar, dressed in a military green jumpsuit, later posted a photograph of him at the event, and praised the Indian Air Force.

The demonstration during the #VayuShakti2019 at Pokhran, Rajasthan on Saturday showcased the full spectrum combat and fire capabilities of the @IAF_MCC. Proud to be associated with such an esteemed institution. #IAF pic.twitter.com/J3Sq3UZeuC

Social media has been comparing Sahin’s photo with that of Tom Cruise in Top Gun (1992), where Tom Cruise is best remembered for a slow motion shot as he walks away from an aircraft.

Pokhran is a city in the Jaisalmer district (Rajasthan), located in the Thar Desert region. India’s first underground nuclear weapon test was conducted in Pokhran. There’s also a movie by the same name, Pokhran starring John Abraham.
