A heart-warming video of a kid living his dream by getting an autograph from Virat Kohli has swept the social media platforms. The viral video, posted on Instagram by user Abdul Hasib, has collected over 18 million views in less than a day and has made netizens go emotional. The post read, “Thank you, Virat bhaiya.”
In the video, the little boy is adamant about holding up a picture of Kohli in an effort to get the attention of the cricketer. He insists on shouting “Virat Kohli!” while maintaining a raised picture. His effort is finally rewarded when Kohli spots him, takes the picture, signs it, and returns it.

The video has gained huge love on the internet, raking in millions of likes, views, and comments. One user commented, “Watched it 10 times, absolutely loved it!” while another remarked, “This kid is going to be a lifelong Virat fan.” Others termed it “a dream come true moment” and welcomed Kohli as “our king.” Even food delivery giant Zomato responded to the viral video, with several netizens praising how fortunate the child was to witness such a magical moment.
At the same time, yet another sweet fan moment with Rohit Sharma has also taken online momentum. On January 19, during the 50th-anniversary ceremony of the iconic Mumbai stadium Wankhede Stadium, a light-hearted incident occurred. The clip, posted by Mumbai Indians and later uploaded on Reddit by IndiaCricket community, reveals a young fan running towards Rohit Sharma with a bat and asking for an autograph.
When Rohit signed the bat, he put out his hand for a fist bump, but the boy, not knowing, took off in glee. Left caught off guard, Rohit smiled as the kid soon realized what he had done and returned to seal the fist bump. The innocuous moment was much admired, joining the ranks of other loved fan moments in cricket.
