Virat Kohli may not have had much to do as Mayank Agarwal dominated the first test against Bangladesh, but the Indian skipper still bowled over the fans by his heart-warming gesture off the field. A video of Kohli interacting with a special fan has gone viral. In the video, a differently-abled fan was waiting to see her sporting heroes but she was left surprised when Virat Kohli came, greeted her and signed an autograph.
However, this is not the first time that Virat Kohli has acknowledged his fans as the India skipper recently met one of his fans, who had tattooed Virat Kohli's jersey number and achievements on his body. The boy had a huge permanent tattoo of Kohli’s first name and jersey no. 18 on his back. He has also inscribed the various landmarks in Kohli’s career on his back, such as the 2008 Under-19 World Cup win, 2013 Arjuna Award, and the 2017 Padma Shri.
