Kochi: He is truly the man of the moment. South India's young superstar Nivin Pauly has been selected as the youth ambassador of popular Indian Super League football team Kerala Blasters.
It was none other than its owner and cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar who roped in Nivin as the team's ambassador on Wednesday.
Kerala Blasters FC on Wednesday unveiled their team for the third Indian Super League at a star-studded function in the presence of their star team owners Tendulkar, Chiranjeevi and Nagarjuna among others.

"The happiness of being a brand ambassador for the first time in my career and the sheer excitement of associating with the man himself, Sachin Tendulkar!," he wrote on his official Facebook account.
"Never thought that this ardent fan of him would get to meet him some day. Words cannot contain my feeling now. Excitement doubles when I also get to closely associate with the legendary actors Chiranjeevi and Nagarjuna for Kerala Blasters," Nivin added.
