Virat Kohli Turns Bollywood Buff As He Shows His Love for Hindi Cinema

Renowned for his magnificent batting on the pitch, Indian stalwart Virat Kohli recently showcased a different kind of mastery - his deep-seated affection for Bollywood.


Kohli revealed Bollywood passion on "Virat Unplugged"

In an episode of the show "Virat Unplugged" on Star Sports, fans witnessed Kohli immersing himself in Bollywood dialogues, displaying a side not many get to see on the field.

Kohli's love for Hindi cinema isn't exactly a secret, given his marriage to Bollywood actress Anushka Sharma and his oft-displayed fondness for mimicking film personalities and dancing to Bollywood songs. However, his recent interaction with actor-comedian Sumukhi Suresh on the show added another dimension to his admiration.

The duo played an engaging game where Sumukhi would initiate a famous Bollywood dialogue, leaving Kohli to finish it. Kohli effortlessly completed lines such as "Crime master Gogo naam hai mera ...", "Teja main hoon, maal idhar hai", and "Don ko pakadna mushkil hi nahi, namumkin hai". Surprisingly, even a Hollywood classic "May the force be with you" didn't escape Kohli's collection.

However, the tables turned when it was Kohli's chance to quiz Sumukhi. He dropped the hint "Mathuradas", catching her off-guard. With Sumukhi failing to complete the dialogue, Kohli, with a gleam in his eye, finished it, "Mathura Das, Isse pehle ki main tujhe goli maar du, durr ho jaa meri nazro se."

On the cricketing front, there's significant anticipation surrounding Kohli as India gears up for their next World Cup 2023 encounter against Sri Lanka on November 2 in Mumbai. 

A century in this match would see Kohli equalling the legendary Sachin Tendulkar's record of 49 ODI centuries. Fans are also eyeing the India vs South Africa match, scheduled on Kohli's birthday (November 5), as the perfect setting for the batsman to notch up his historic 50th ODI ton.
