Virat Kohli More than just a cricket character. The former Indian skipper has millions of fans and followers across the world inside and outside the world of cricket.

This time, the rivalry Kohli faces is not about the leaps and bounds of the cricket field, but the pomp and glory of the showbiz world. Kohli's competition, though far from the dynamics of the game, is the queen of the glamor world.
