Maharashtra tourism minister Chhagan Bhujbal wants cricket icon Sachin Tendulkar to be the brand ambassador of the state's tourism. "Sachin should be Maharashtra's tourism brand ambassador. Like Aamir Khan (India Tourism), M S Dhoni (Jharkhand) and Amitabh Bachchan (Gujarat tourism), Sachin should
also become Maharashtra's tourism brand ambassador," Bhujbal said here today.

The senior NCP minister has written a letter to the ace cricketer, requesting him to become the brand ambassador, an official said.

2011 is being celebrated as Tourism Year in the state, Bhujbal said and underlined the need for publicity initiatives to attract more foreign tourists and revenues to the state.
