Former Indian skipper and the modern-day batting great, Virat Kohli has a massive fan following, not only in India but across the entire cricketing world. Apart from this, there is a very different craze for Kohli in the Indian city of Bengaluru as the star batter is actively playing for the Royal Challengers Bangalore in the Indian Premier League.

Showing his love for the Indian cricketing great, a fan in Bengaluru named his food outlet’s name ‘Kohli’s Kitchen’. This news immediately made it to the headlines of social media as soon as a photograph of this hotel was shared by a user over X (formerly Twitter).

The fans also came up with a lot of wholesome reactions after seeing this unique initiative from the die-hard Kohli fan.

Virat Kohli missing from international cricket due to personal reasons

Talking about cricket, Kohli is currently out of action from international cricket as he has opted out of the Indian squad due to personal reasons. Team India under the captaincy of regular skipper Rohit Sharma are currently taking on England in the ongoing five-match Test series.

Initially, he withdrew his name from the first two Tests of the series against the Three Lions; later, the announcement of India’s squad for the final 3 Tests revealed that Kohli would continue to remain out from the Indian squad due to personal and family reasons.

Just a few days back, Kohli was in the headlines after his friend and former RCB teammate AB de Villiers made a revelation about Virat and Anushka expecting their second child. However, things got worse when ABD took a U-turn from his claims and said that there was nothing like what he said regarding Virat Kohli.

In the same line of events, a lot of former cricketers and experts have spoken about Kohli being absent from Team India in the ongoing five-match Test Series.

Here’s how fans reacted to the fan's initiative of opening a hotel with the name of Virat Kohli:
