Indian cricketer Virat Kohli has vehemently denied a shocking news story that stated he was building a cricket pitch at his home in Alibaug. Kohli has denied the claim, which quickly gained traction on social media platforms.
Virat and his actress-wife Anushka Sharma, two of the most talked-about stars in the entertainment industry, have bought an eight-acre property in Zirad village. Rested for the entire T20I series between India and the West Indies, former Indian skipper Kohli recently visited the construction site in Maharashtra.
Power couple Virat and Anushka reportedly had plans to construct a cricket field at their opulent Alibaug home, according to Times of India news article. Kohli, however, has dispelled the rumors by posting a notable comment on social media. On Tuesday, Kohli clarified the situation on Instagram and called the development fake news. “Bachpan se jo akhbaar Padha hai, wo bhi fake news chaapne lage ab (Newspapers which I have read since childhood, have also started publishing fake news.),” Kohli mentioned in his Instagram post through Stories.
The news organization has since withdrawn the report, noting in an update that “This article has been removed. We regret any inconvenience we may have caused’’.
Users also expressed doubts about the Times of India’s reliability as a source of news on social media.
After the media outlet said that the former India captain was eager to have a cricket pitch on his opulent property, Kohli responded. Kohli is one of the most popular athletes on the Instagram app , with over 255 million followers. A prior story claimed Kohli had purchased a second home in Alibaug the previous year. The senior Indian team hitter paid INR 36 lakh in stamp duty for the sale of his 2,000 square foot property in Alibaug, which cost him INR 6 crore.
Recently, inaccurate allegations about Kohli’s Instagram profits have surfaced. The great batter is the third-richest athlete on the social networking platform, charging $1,384,000, or more than Rs 11.45 crore, for each post, according to a story in Hopper HQ. He is third only to Cristiano Ronaldo who commands $3,234,000 or Rs 26.76 crore per post and Lionel Messi, who commands $2,597,000 or Rs 21.49 crore for a post. Virat Kohli, who has 256 million Instagram followers, quickly went on social media to refute the allegation after it made news. Taking to his official X account on Saturday morning, Kohli said he is grateful for whatever he has received in his life but the reports regarding his social media earning are false. “While I am grateful and indebted to all that I’ve received in life, the news that has been making rounds about my social media earnings is not true,” he said.
Meanwhile, The 34-year-old is preparing for the upcoming Asia Cup. In his prior white-ball assignment against the West Indies in the Caribbean, run-machine Kohli did not bat for Rohit Sharma’s Team India.
