Ind vs SL: Virat Kohli joins the trend, does Allu Arjun’s signature step from ‘Pushpa’ on field

New Delhi: It has been nearly 3 months since Allu Arjun and Rashmika Mandana starrer ‘Pushpa: The Rise’ released, but Pushpa’s fever doesn’t seem to be over yet.

After Ravindra Jadeja, David Warner, and Suresh Raina, former India captain Virat Kohli has joined the list on Sunday.

On its third day while playing a test match against Sri Lanka in Mohali, Kohli suddenly mimicked the iconic Pushpa gesture on the field.

In an attempt to amuse the crowd in the stadium, the batter followed Allu Arjun’s signature step from the film, rubbing the back of his hand on his chin while looking into the camera.

And it did not come as a surprise when the video of Kohli performing Pushpa’s iconic move went viral on various social media platforms.
