Recently, Indian cricketer Virat Kohli was seen breaking his cool when a fan called him ‘Chokli’ while he was training in a room full of his teammates. This banned chanted ‘Chokli-Chokli’ Kohli had all sorts of reactions on his face when one of the fans initiate with the banned chants.

The cricketer instantly glared at the guy, and to tell you he was judging the man by just staring into his eyes and believe me Virat was not happy in any way. For those who don’t know, ‘Chokli’ is slang given to Virat by trolls on social media. The term is a fusion of his last name – Kohli and ‘choking’. This term is used by trollers when Kohli performs poorly in a knockout match of India team. The term was given after India’s exit from the 2019 World Cup, when Virat was dismissed for one.

Someone called Virat Kohli a chokli in front of him in the dressing room of Colombo ground in Sri Lanka, after which Virat got angry.😭😭

No way now Lankan fan's also owning Virat Kohli 🙏😹😹😹 pic.twitter.com/ru4KbRUfBX

Reacting to the word, Virat replied, “Not here.” In no time, the video went viral on Twitter and people showered their various comments on it. One of the user said, “your irrelevant tweet doesn’t change the fact that he is goat’, the second comment said, ‘Goat for Lankan fan’s?”

Virat had quality time in London with his wife, Anushka Sharma and children, Vamika and Akaay. He was observed also singing with his wife in kirtan and others devotional songs.
