¡°Struggle uski hoti hai jisko do waqt ki roti nahi milti hai. Aap apne hard work ko struggle bol ke usko glorify kar sakte ho, uspe cherry on top laga sakte ho, aapko koi nahi bol raha hai gym mein jaane ke liye, but you have to feed your family. (The one who doesn¡¯t get two square meals in a day, he¡¯s the one who¡¯s struggling. You can glorify your hard work by calling it a struggle, you can put a cherry on top, no one is asking you to go the gym, but you have to feed your family),¡± he wrote.

How did Kohli express gratitude?

The former Indian captain expressed gratitude for his current situation, acknowledging that in comparison to the serious issues individuals face, his own concerns appear insignificant.

"I am just grateful; basically, I am in a privileged position since I am able to accomplish what I have always wanted to do. I play a sport as a profession. It is not done when you consider the real challenges that individuals encounter in life. You can't compare getting out of a Test series to someone who doesn't have a roof over his head," he pondered, to applause from the crowd.
