Apart from his brilliance on the field, Kohli is also adored by cricket fans for his response to the love of his fans. Recently, the veteran of 71 international centuries happened to do a similar when he got a message from a specially-abled fan.
Senior Indian sports journalist Vimal Kumar posted a video on his YouTube channel. In the video, he conveyed the message from a die-hard fan to the Indian batting great.
“Keep doing what you are doing because it inspires people. I can’t see him, but I would love to hear him. That will be very delightful. Cricket is a sport, and it makes people happy,” said Ellie which was later conveyed to Kohli from Vimal Kumar.
Ellie also added further that she would be fortunate enough if the modern-day cricketing legend says something to her.
Subsequently, Virat won the hearts of millions of his fans by delivering a heartfelt message to his fan after being conveyed by Vimal Kumar.
Here's the video of Ellie's message followed by Virat's response
Dear @imVkohli , watched you as young prodigy but more than your staggering numbers, today’s lovely gesture to Ellie will be an unforgettable memory of my life. This was my little Birthday gift to you, Champion. Best wishes always #HappyBirthdayViratKohli https://t.co/ij5SSCW2e0 pic.twitter.com/W07Qje3Pk5

“Hi Ellie, it was very, very sweet of you to send this message across to me. To your mother as well, thank you so much for such lovely and kind words. I am really honored and grateful that I was able to make an impact in your life and give you some sort of inspiration. And make you optimistic about life,” said Kohli in response to Ellie’s message.
“I can only wish you all the best and may God bless you with all the happiness and would love to meet you when we come back to England. I am looking forward to meeting you,” the highest run-scorer of the 20-20 World Cup added later.
