Virat Kohli Turns Down Multi-Crore Soft Drink Deal for social reason

Written by Rohit Pawar

Team India skipper Virat Kohli is not only the greatest batsman of modern era, but also inspiration of millions of fans as well. He too seems aware of the fact and always set high standards on and off the field.

Recently, he once again grabbed eyeballs by making a move that can inspire a generation.

According to a report in The Hindu, the Indian skipper had turned down a multi-crore soft drink endorsement because he doesn’t consume aerated drinks. There is no doubt about the fact that Kohli is a youth icon and his every step is closely monitored by people all around the country and this will have an effect. His decision to not accept the deal was plain and simple — he didn’t wish to go ahead with the endorsement as he follows a strict diet which doesn’t include any aerated drinks.

“I first convince myself I can do it and only then ask my teammates to go for it,” the Indian skipper once said.
