New Delhi: You can eventually lose contact with the loved ones who supported you when you were struggling. But you always remember them. The worst moments of your development period shaped who you are today. The folks who stood by your side during those tough times also had a significant impact.
The same is true of Virat Kohli, who rose through the ranks by working hard. The reunion of the former Indian cricket team captain and his former roommate from their U-15 years was quite touching.
Met him aftr 6 yrs after IPL in UK & 1st thing he tells me is Chiru Kaise hai tu? U-15 days we were roommates & I used to watch chiranjeevi’s songs on tv & he danced to them & from then on Chiru was nickname we gave each other..It was great seeing u Chiru? @imVkohli #viratkohli pic.twitter.com/HJfclzIMMC
