“The season was over, and I was showing where it’s paining. Virat just called and we started dancing. The idea to lift the leg was mine, and I said let’s do it. I found out after half an hour of him putting it up as a story. Someone told me and then I saw it,” he said in a video shared by UPT20 on YouTube.

“Make me do anything, but there is no point in making me dance. It was Rinku’s engagement. I told them I had to leave so they made me dance a bit before leaving. Because I did, Rinku had to as well. He tells me even today that because of me, he also had to dance,” he added again.

However, Bhuvneshwar Kumar also opened up about Virat Kohli’s mimicry skills, claiming that the RCB batter could mimic anybody.

“Virat mimics everyone. He can mimic anyone. He has that class. In this, he is more talented than his batting. Vicky Ostwal is good. Vihaan as well. Mostly the new guys are good. We had a ritual that after the game, we would go back to the team room and play. Anything, but we had to play for an hour,” Bhuvneshwar Kumar concluded.
