Former India and Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) captain, Virat Kohli is known for his aggressive celebrations on the field. However, it comes out of his spirit and passion for the game, and his fans love the way he entertains them with his batting exploits and such vibrant characters during the game. Having said that, Kohli is a lighthearted person off the field and has been spotted having fun with teammates and even his supporters.

On May 10, Kohli and his wife Anushka Sharma were seen posing for pictures in front of photographers at his Mumbai restaurant, One 8 Commune, and a humorous interaction between the batting stalwart and the paparazzi went viral on the internet. The celebrity couple stepped out to have dinner with the rest of his Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) team while they were in Mumbai.

Kohli and Anushka came out of the restaurant and posed for pictures, during which one of the photographers mistakenly addressed Anushka as "sir". Kohli noticed it and instantly cracked a joke, asking the paparazzi to call him as 'Virat ma'am'. "Virat ma'am bhi bol de (Why don't you say Virat ma'am too!)", the right-handed batter asked. The couple smiled at Kohli's friendly gesture before heading back inside.

RCB's IPL 2023 Playoff Scenarios:

The Faf du Plessis-led RCB lost their last encounter against the Mumbai Indians (MI) by six wickets, complicating their path to the Indian Premier League (IPL) playoffs. The Bangalore-based franchise is currently seventh in the points table and needs to win the remaining three matches to enter the knockouts. RCB next face former champions Rajasthan Royals (RR) in Jaipur on May 14, and if they lose, they will have to depend on the results of other teams.
