There is no denying the fact that the iconic move of Allu Arjun from the movie Pushpa has often been copied by the cricketers. Now, a video of Indian stalwart, Virat Kohli imitating Allu Arjun’s iconic move from the film has been making rounds on social media. The right-handed batter imitated the moves during Day 3 of the first Test match between India and Sri Lanka at the PCA stadium in Mohali.
Virat Kohli, who played his 100th Test match, managed to score 45 runs before he was clean bowled after a peach of a delivery from the left-arm spinner Lasith Embuldeniya. The 33-year-old did not get a chance to bat again in his special match as the home team thrashed the visitors by an innings and 222 runs. Even though Kohli did not get a chance to bat again, he had a ball of a time on the field cheering for the bowlers to take wickets.

Earlier in the game, India after winning the toss decided to bat first with contributions coming from most of the batting order. Jadeja who was announced player of the match was also the top contributor for the home side.
