In a heartwarming moment ahead of the high-stakes IPL 2025 match between Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), Virat Kohli was seen bonding with LSG mentor and former India pacer Zaheer Khan. The interaction, now viral on social media, took place during a training session at the Ekana Stadium in Lucknow.
Kohli’s Adorable Reaction to Zaheer Khan’s Newborn
Zaheer Khan, who recently became a father, was showing pictures of his newborn son Fatehsinh to Kohli. The video, shared by the official LSG X handle, shows Kohli keenly looking at the pictures and asking, “Kispe gaya hai?” (Who does he resemble?). Zaheer replied that his son is a mix of both him and his wife, actress Sagarika Ghatge.
Kohli, with a smile, added, “His eyes are just like you,” leaving Zaheer grinning with pride. The sweet moment was captioned “Simply aww” by LSG, and fans across the country loved the wholesome interaction.
RCB’s Playoff Dream Hangs in the Balance
As RCB prepare to face LSG in their final league-stage match, the stakes couldn’t be higher. A win will secure them a top-two finish and a place in Qualifier 1. A loss, however, will push them to the Eliminator. Kohli, who has been in the spotlight recently for his retirement from Test cricket, is expected to lead from the front.
Kohli and Anushka Visit Hanuman Garhi Temple
Just a day before the match, Kohli and his wife Anushka Sharma visited the famous Hanuman Garhi temple in Ayodhya. Videos and photos of their visit have gone viral. The couple were seen offering prayers and receiving blessings from the temple priests. This visit follows their recent trip to Vrindavan, where they sought blessings from spiritual leader Premanand Govind Sharan Ji Maharaj.
Virat Kohli’s blend of spiritual presence and on-field focus continues to inspire millions, both as a cricketer and as a public figure.
