Cricket fans were in for a surprise when Virat Kohli revealed the song he’s currently hooked on. In a candid moment during a pre-match interview ahead of the highly anticipated clash between Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) at the iconic Chinnaswamy Stadium, Kohli shared that he's been listening to the Tamil chartbuster "Nee Singam Dhan" from Simbu’s (STR) Pathu Thala on loop.
The powerful track known for its fierce energy and rousing lyrics, has struck a chord with the legendary batter. Interestingly, Pathu Thala is a Tamil remake of a Kannada film—perhaps a nod to Kohli’s deep connect with Bengaluru and its culture.
IPL 2025 Resume
The match marks Kohli’s first appearance at Chinnaswamy following the unexpected suspension of the IPL 2025 due to Operation Sindoor, and it’s more than just another game—it’s an emotional farewell of sorts, with the Test cricket icon set to retire from the longest format. Fans are preparing to transform the stadium into a sea of white in tribute to Kohli’s legendary red-ball career, a gesture that promises goosebumps and tears in equal measure.
Rain Likely To Play Spoilsport
However, the weather gods might have other plans. With showers forecast in Bengaluru, there is a growing concern that rain could disrupt the much-awaited fixture. Despite the looming threat, fans remain hopeful that the skies will clear in time, allowing one last memorable evening with their King at his fortress.
