Delhi Police brutal dig at Virat Kohli (Source:@Kohliblood,x.com)
The Delhi Police is known for their witty and often pop culture-inspired social media presence, has unexpectedly stirred the pot surrounding the ongoing online buzz involving Virat Kohli and actress Avneet Kaur. What seemed like a routine traffic awareness post on Instagram has now become a viral topic of conversation.
What truly caught the internet's attention was a particular line in the extended caption: “We would like to clarify that while checking our cameras, it appears the algorithm has registered many interactions…”
Did Delhi Police Mock Virat Kohli?
Fans were quick to draw parallels between this line and Virat Kohli’s recent clarification regarding an unexpected Instagram 'like' on a fan page dedicated to actress Avneet Kaur.
After the incident Kohli faced endless trolling, and had later claimed in an Instagram story that the platform’s algorithm may have mistakenly registered the interaction. The line 'algorithm has registered' was enough for social media users to connect the dots and believe that Delhi Police’s post was a dig aimed at the star cricketer.
“We would like to clarify that while checking our cameras, it appears the algorithm has registered many interactions. It aims to punish the speeders and traffic rule violators. We request that no unnecessary speeding and stunts be done on public roads. Challans will be issued to the violators. Thank you for your understanding."
Just one day ago, singer Rahul Vaidya had shared a video mocking Kohli’s explanation, using similar language to highlight the stupidity of blaming an algorithm for a personal social media action.
What Is The Controversy Between Virat Kohli & Avneet Kaur?
The original controversy began when fans noticed that Kohli’s official Instagram account had liked a post featuring photos of Avneet Kaur. Though it is possible the action was accidental, the internet was quick to pounce, with screenshots, memes, and commentary.
As the backlash grew, Kohli issued a statement and stated that the like was due to an algorithm error. This clarification only fueled more jokes and speculation. Some fans have expressed disappointment over Kohli’s thoughts on addressing the issue at all, particularly given the stature he holds in Indian cricket.
It is important to mention that the Delhi Police has not issued any further clarification on the viral post.
