Virat Kohli, during the RCB Unbox event ahead of IPL 2024, made a heartfelt request to his fans, urging them to refrain from calling him ‘King’ as he finds it quite ’embarrassing’. Despite being a beloved figure among his fans, Kohli expressed his discomfort with the ‘King’ title that has been associated with him for years.
Initially bestowed upon him by media outlets and broadcasting channels, the term gained popularity among fans who embraced it wholeheartedly. While Sachin Tendulkar was often referred to as ‘god’, Kohli was dubbed their ‘King’. However, after years of being labelled as such, Kohli now desires to put an end to this movement as he feels embarrassed by the term.
During the event, Kohli’s address to the crowd was eagerly anticipated. Amidst celebrations for his RCB teammates and the unveiling of the new jersey, Kohli’s request for a change in how he’s addressed added a poignant moment to the proceedings.
Although Kohli made a sincere plea to his fans, urging them to simply call him ‘Virat’, the love and adulation he receives often transcend such requests. Despite his discomfort, Kohli’s fans, much like those of Tendulkar, may continue to affectionately refer to him as ‘King’.
