Delhi: The center of this story is Jeetendra Singh, the childhood coach of Pandya Brothers, who enhanced his talent in Baraoda in the early days. Today, when Hardik and Krunal Pandya have become a big name in the cricket world, they still consider this coach not only a guru but a part of the family.

Economic and personal help

In the last few years, Pandya brothers have provided financial assistance of up to ₹ 70–80 lakh in the help of Jeetendra Singh. This is not just a transaction of money, but is an example of love and respect for them.

Car from car to marriage

In a conversation with the Times of India, Jeetendra Singh shared many incidents. He told that recently Hardik gifted him a car. Also, when their sisters got married, Pandya brothers provided all possible financial assistance. Hardik then said, “Your sister means my sister, whenever the marriage is fixed, just tell.”

The generosity started before success

Jeetendra Singh said that Hardik’s generosity started appearing in 2015, when he played in IPL for Mumbai Indians. At the same time his mother became seriously ill, then Hardik gave his full earnings to the coach so that treatment could be done properly. After India debut, Hardik also gave him a car of ₹ 5–6 lakh, so that he would not travel by bike and be safe.

Krunal also played responsibility

Not only Hardik, Krunal Pandya also helped financially many times. He also transferred money to the coach to buy another car.

Emotional engagement and honor

This relationship is emotional than money. On Teachers’ Day in 2017, Hardik wrote an emotional post on social media, in which he told Jeetendra Singh as a person who stood with him in every difficulty. He promised that “I will always be with you.”

On every small and big opportunity

Pandya Brothers have supported him in every need from his coach’s clothes to wedding ceremonies. Singh says that many of his personal items have also been gifted by Pandya brothers, who matters a lot to him because his background is quite simple.
