Virat Kohli viral video: Kohli broke his silence on the joke of ‘overseas player’, said- Am I a foreigner?

Virat kohli viral video: Virat Kohli is once again in the news amid IPL 2026, but this time the reason is not his game but the joke going on on social media. In a video shared by Royal Challengers Bangalore, Kohli reacted to being called an overseas player and replied to the trolls in a light-hearted manner.

The video features host Danish Sait, who plays Mr. Nags. Joking with Kohli, he says that people are saying that RCB is playing with 5 overseas players. To this Kohli answers smilingly, ‘I don’t know, why are you asking me? Ask overseas players. I’m not an overseas player…am I?

Kohli’s reply to the taunt about overseas player
Actually, this joke is related to the rule of IPL in which a team is allowed to play only a maximum of four foreign players in a match. Fans are taking a jibe at Kohli for his stay in London, calling him a foreign player.

Kohli lives in London with his actress wife.
It is noteworthy that Kohli and his wife, Bollywood actress Anushka Sharma had decided to shift to London in the year 2024. Its purpose was to keep our children away from the constant paparazzi culture in India, so that they can grow up in a normal environment.

Last year RCB won the title
During the same conversation, Kohli also recalled RCB’s historic win in 2025. Royal Challengers Bangalore won the IPL title for the first time after a long wait of 18 years. Under the leadership of captain Rajat Patidar, the team defeated Punjab Kings by 6 runs in the final played at Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.

Kohli described that victory as one of the most special moments of his career. He said that that night he understood the real meaning of the saying ‘Monkey off the back’. That night everything seemed lighter. As if a huge burden had been lifted.

Kohli further said that victory is not just a trophy, but it is the result of years of hard work, sacrifice and dedication. There is a lot to be learned from defeat, but continuous defeat can also make the player disappointed. In such a situation, when you win, it seems that your hard work has not gone in vain.

Overall, Kohli not only responded to the joke but also shared his journey and struggle. Fans are very fond of his style.
