Virat Kohli has made it clear—he wants broadcasters to stop talking about his lunch. And especially about his favorite chole bhature spot in Delhi.
The Indian batting legend isn’t fond of the growing trend of sports broadcasts delving into personal trivia about athletes. Instead, he believes discussions should be focused on the game and the challenges players face. Sharing his perspective at an event, Kohli remarked, “A broadcast show needs to talk about the game and not what I ate yesterday for lunch or my favorite chole-bhature place in Delhi. You can’t have that in cricket matches. Rather, you could talk about what an athlete is going through.”
Virat Kohli’s commitment to fitness is well-known, with many drawing comparisons between his discipline and that of global sports icons like Cristiano Ronaldo and Novak Djokovic. At 36, he follows a rigorous fitness regimen, rarely indulging in his favorite foods to maintain peak performance.
His views reflect a deeper desire for sports narratives to shift towards aspects that truly matter in an athlete’s journey, rather than trivial details about their diet and preferences.
