Royal Challengers Bangalore comes to Virat Kohli’s aid, clarifies fireworks video that led to outrage against him

Indian Premier League (IPL) franchise Royal Challengers Bangalore on Monday (November 16) issued an announcement from their official Twitter deal with clarifying their stance on firecrackers following the immense outrage in opposition to Virat Kohli for his eco-friendly message on Diwali.

It had all began with India and RCB skipper Virat Kohli posting a message for his followers, vouching for an eco-friendly Diwali – laying particular emphasis on not burning any crackers. Kohli’s message might be seen on this video. 

But, as quickly as he posted this message, an enormous variety of folks brutally trolled Kohli for his double requirements as a video of his latest birthday celebrations began going viral. In that video, Kohli is seen celebrating his birthday together with his actress spouse Anushka Sharma and all of the RCB teammates as fireworks go on within the background. The video of his birthday might be seen beneath (skip to five:50 to see the fireworks).

Kohli’s birthday video had initially been posted from the social media handles of RCB and now the franchise have come out clarifying the entire situation. They have thus come to the protection of their skipper by revealing that the video is definitely from UAE’s flag day celebrations which was edited within the video to associate with it’s theme. The video, as per RCB, isn’t from Kohli’s birthday.

Kohli instantly began trending on Twitter and different platforms on Diwali with customers laying into the star cricketer for hypocrisy. Although, it should be famous that Kohli didn’t shed any gentle on the entire fireworks footage himself and the next resentment in opposition to him.

It solely stays to be seen if RCB’s readability helps in cooling down folks’s latest resentment in direction of Kohli.
