Virat Kohli ‘Pooja-Paath’: Ahead of Virat Kohli’s comeback to cricket action against Australia, the Indian star batter and his wife, actress Anushka Sharma, are taking a break in Rishikesh. On Monday, Virat Kohli travelled to Rishikesh with his wife Anushka Sharma and daughter Vamika to visit the Dayanand Giri Ashram. Many fans were quick to recall a comment that Kohli made seven years ago during a news conference at the T20 World Cup as the pictures of the former India skipper went viral on social media. A reporter had questioned Kohli about if he practices ‘pooja-paath,’ or prayers, to maintain his composure under pressure to which Kohli replied, “Do I look like the pooja-path types?”.

“When I started, a lot about me was wrong. I was the tattoo guy, the one who wore stylish clothes. It is very easy to focus on the negative stuff but I choose not do that. The basic thinking is I want to improve as a cricketer every day. I make sure I do all the hard work and hope it pays off one day. I back myself to go out there and win the game.
“As a cricketer, you don’t have a long career. For me it is an opportunity. Once you get addicted to it (performing), you want more and more of it. You work so hard and you want that satisfaction,” he had said.
Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma were spotted in the Rishikesh Aashram, and cricket fans were reminded of the comment. Here is how they responded:

#ViratKohli once said ” Do I really look like a Pooja person” looking at his tatoos in a press conference many years back before marriage. Thanks to #AnushkaSharma mam for changing Virat as a person. It’s amazing to see this transformation from Virat.🙏 https://t.co/XcN3B87SaE
