Mumbai – Singer and reality show star Rahul Vaidya has publicly thanked cricketer Virat Kohli for unblocking him on social media, putting an old controversy to rest. Rahul had once called Kohli a “joker” during an emotional moment in a cricket match, which led to backlash and, eventually, the singer being blocked by the cricketer.
Now, with time having passed and emotions cooled, Rahul took to social media to express his gratitude and respect for Kohli. “Thank you for unblocking me, Virat,” Rahul wrote in a heartfelt post. “You’re not just a cricket legend, you’re the pride of our country.”
The post quickly gained attention from fans of both celebrities. Many praised Rahul for his honesty and maturity, while others appreciated Kohli’s quiet gesture of letting the matter go.
Rahul also clarified that his earlier comment was made in the heat of the moment and wasn’t meant to hurt anyone personally. He added that he continues to admire Kohli’s dedication, passion, and the way he represents India on the international stage.
This small moment of reconciliation has been warmly received online, showing that respect and understanding can go a long way—even on social media.
