Virat Kohli and Shikhar Dhawan’s Heartfelt Reunion After RCB’s IPL Victory
Former Delhi teammates and Indian cricket stalwarts Virat Kohli and Shikhar Dhawan shared a poignant moment after Royal Challengers Bangalore’s triumph over Punjab Kings in the IPL 2024 season opener.
Following RCB’s victory at home, Kohli was seen consoling Dhawan, who is currently captaining the Punjab Kings side. The two shared warm embraces and laughter, capturing the depth of their bond both on and off the field.
Dhawan’s recent struggles to meet his son Zoravar have been well-documented. In December 2023, he revealed that he had been blocked from contacting his nine-year-old son for the past five to six months.
In an emotional Instagram post on his son’s birthday, Dhawan shed light on the challenges he faced following his unsuccessful marriage with Aesha Mukerji. In October 2023, a Delhi court granted divorce to Dhawan, citing “cruelty” inflicted by his estranged wife.
Despite his personal challenges, Dhawan has remained a formidable force on the cricket field. He has played a key role in Punjab Kings’ early success in the IPL 2024 season, leading the team to one victory and one defeat in their first two matches.
Kohli’s gesture of support towards Dhawan highlights the camaraderie and empathy that exists within the Indian cricket fraternity. The two players have shared countless memorable moments on the field, and their friendship continues to endure off the field as well.
