The underprivileged kids also talked about their favorite sportsperson. They named Sachin Tendulkar, PV Sindhu, Cristiano Ronaldo, MS Dhoni, and of course, Virat. A kid said he likes Kohli because of his beard and it made the Indian cricketer laugh.

When Virat joined the kids, it was heartwarming to see a smile on their faces. They were not expecting Kohli to come. As soon as he removed his beard, the kids recognized him and ran towards Virat for a hug.

Here is the video:
