Anushka Sharma fumes after Virat Kohli's hotel room video leaked online

| @indiablooms | Oct 31, 2022, at 08:19 pm

Bollywood actor Anushka Sharma fumed at India's star cricketer Virat Kohli's fan who shared a video of the batter's hotel room online.

Anushka wrote on her Instagram story, "Have experienced a few incidents where some fans have shown no compassion or grace in the past but this really is the worst thing.

"An absolute disgrace and violation of a human being and anyone who sees this and thinks celebrity ho toh deal Karna padega (If you are a celebrity then you will have to deal with this) should know that you are also part of the problem. Exercising some self control helps everyone. Also, if this is happening in your bedroom then where is the line?"

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

A post shared by Virat Kohli (@virat.kohli)

The 'fan' had entered Kohli's room, recorded it and posted it online.

Angered by the breach of privacy, Kohli wrote on Instagram, "I understand that fans get very happy and excited seeing their favourite players and get excited to meet them and I’ve always appreciated that. But this video here is appalling and it’s made me feel very paranoid about my privacy.

"If I cannot have privacy in my own hotel room, then where can I really expect any personal space at all?? I’m NOT okay with this kind of fanaticism and absolute invasion of privacy. Please respect people’s privacy and not treat them as a commodity for entertainment."

Commenting on Kohli's post, Australian star batsman David Warner commented, "This is ridiculous, totally unacceptable. Was this @crownperth."
