Bollywood actress and social media personality Avneet Kaur recently addressed the buzz around Virat Kohli liking her photo during IPL 2025. Fans had spotted the former India captain’s like on one of Kaur’s fan-run Instagram pages, sparking widespread chatter.
Kohli later clarified the situation, explaining through an Instagram story that the like was unintentional. At the trailer launch of her upcoming film Love in Vietnam, a reporter indirectly brought up the matter by asking Kaur how she felt about receiving likes on her pictures from several high-profile celebrities.
Reacting to the question, Kaur stated:
“Milte rahe pyaar bas. Aur kya bolun? (Let the love keep coming. What else do I say?)”

Kohli’s like on Kaur’s photo sparked a wave of controversy. Urging fans not to read too much into the incident, he clarified in an Instagram story:
“I’d like to clarify that while clearing my feed, it appears the algorithm may have mistakenly registered an interaction. There was absolutely no intent behind it. I request that no unnecessary assumptions be made. Thank you for your understanding.”

Kohli was recently spotted preparing for the tour with a net session at Lord’s in London and took time to click pictures with fans after training. Virat Kohli last featured in IPL 2025, finishing as RCB’s top run-scorer with 657 runs in 15 innings. The Bengaluru-based team clinched their first-ever men’s title by defeating Punjab Kings (PBKS) in the final.
