A young fan met his hero Virat Kohli and received his autograph, and what followed has melted millions of hearts online. The kid's reaction pure excitement disbelief, and Virat Kohl overflowing happiness-shows what it truly means to admire someone from the heart."

After the conclusion of IPL 2025, he spent some time with his family in London and resumed training there after a short break.

This emotional moment became another beautiful example of the deep bond between Virat Kohli and his fans.

With Kohli and Rohit Sharma joining the Indian team for the Australia tour starting October 19th, much of the attention has shifted to the two former captains. However, a spontaneous and emotional moment during the team's practice session in Perth caught everyone's attention.
