India's star batter Virat Kohli landed in India on Thursday and received a warm reception from the fans, who were waiting outside the airport. He looked relaxed when he came out of the airport and instantly got the attention of the fans.
When he was surrounded by photographers, Kohli was seen asking for a little space so he could enter his car. After he had reached the parking space, he was seen giving his bag to his support staff and then also clicked pictures with the fans. After showing his hilarious side, he even called out those fans who wanted to get clicked and made sure that everyone got their chance.
“Haan bhai, kaun kaun hai photo wala? (Yes, who all wants to get a photo?)," Kohli had said in a video which was heard as saying in a video which had gone viral on social media.

At the same time, Kohli reminded people nearby to move carefully and maintain safety, ensuring that the crowd situation stayed under control. After spending a few minutes greeting supporters and posing for pictures, he finally got into his car and left the airport.
When Will Kohli Be In Action Next?
The star batter had been in London following India’s ODI series against New Zealand earlier this year. Despite India losing the three-match series under Shubman Gill’s captaincy, Kohli emerged as the team’s highest run-scorer. He even struck a brilliant century in the deciding match, though his effort alone could not secure victory for the side.
Before that series, Kohli had also played for Delhi in the Vijay Hazare Trophy, registering both a century and a half-century in his appearances.
Fans will next see him in action during IPL 2026, where Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) will aim to defend their title. However, uncertainty remains over whether the team can use their traditional home ground, M Chinnaswamy Stadium, following last year’s tragic stampede incident.
