What is Virat Kohli's net worth?
The 34-year-old batter has invested in seven start-ups like Blue Tribe, Universal Sportsbiz, MPL, and Sports Convo, One8. Kohli earns the biggest brand fees in Bollywood and sports nowadays.ย He demands a price of INR 7.50-10 crores for each advertisement per year for a day, according to reports. If the shooting lasts until the next day, his demands are increased accordingly.
The star batter presently owns 26 different brands. They include well-known brands such as Vivo, Blue Star, Luxor, HSBC, Uber, Thoothsee, Star Sports, MRF, and Cynthol. This indicates that he gets at least INR 175 crores per year from commercials alone.
In terms of social media, Kohli is unmatched in Asia. Kohli charges Rs 8.9 crores for every Instagram post and Rs 2.5 crores for each Twitter post. He is also the owner of five start-ups. This includes the One8 Commune restaurant, which opened in 2017, as well as the dining bar and restaurant "Nueva," which opened in 2017. The One8 brand for athletes' clothing began in 2013 in collaboration with the Wrogn clothing chain, and in 2016 it expanded to include the children's lifestyle brand Stepathlon.
Kohli's net worth has increased significantly as a result of his deals with MRF and Puma. He is also the co-owner of the FC Goa Football Club, a tennis club called UAE Royals, and a professional wrestling team called Bengaluru Yodhas. The former Indian skipper has a property in Mumbai worth INR 34 crore and another in Gurgaon worth INR 80 crore.
All of this has had a significant influence on Kohli's net worth. Kohli frequently collaborates with his wife and Bollywood star, Anushka Sharma, to be a part of start-ups.
