LOOK | ‘KING’ Kohli gives Punjabi twist to Thalapathy Vijay’s ‘Appadi Podu’

IPL 2024, CSK vs RCB: Friday was no different as at the MA Chidambaram Stadium, Kohli was grooving to Thalapathy Vijay’s popular ‘Appadi Podu’ song.

Chennai: Virat Kohli is not only a world-class batsman but he is also an entertainer. Hailing from Delhi, Kohli has shown the cheerful side and the child in him not once, twice, but several times. Friday was no different as at the MA Chidambaram Stadium, Kohli was grooving to Thalapathy Vijay’s popular ‘Appadi Podu’ song.

This happened during the innings break, when Kohli and the rest had entered the field and were warming up. The music was playing in the background and that got Kohli going. But the interesting thing here is that he gave his own Punjabi twist to the dance by adding some bhangra to it.

Here’s the clip that’s now going viral:

This is not the first time that Kohli has been spotted dancing. He has admitted on many occasions that he and Shikhar Dhawan loved to dance and at one point they were among the only ones in the national team who heard and grooved to Punjabi music.

With the bat, Kohli scored 21 off 20 balls and was killed after Ajinkya Rahane and Rachin Ravindra pulled off a dream relay catch near the ropes.

At the time of filing the copy, chasing 174 to win, Chennai are at 87 for two in nine overs.
