Virat Kohli Instagram account, which suddenly disappeared on Thursday night, is now back online. Fans were worried that Kohli might have deleted his Instagram account. The Indian cricket team's star player has more followers on Instagram than any other cricketer in the world. He has 274 million followers and follows 283 accounts himself.
Virat Kohli made headlines on Friday morning when it was discovered that his Instagram account had disappeared. Speculation arose that Kohli might have decided to take a break from social media. However, it could also have been a technical glitch, as he hadn't recently posted anything to suggest he was leaving social media or taking a break.
Why was Virat Kohli's account deactivated?
Virat Kohli had posted two pictures with Anushka Sharma on New Year's Day, and later shared another photo on Instagram related to his preparations for the ODI series against New Zealand. Fans were happy that Kohli was posting on Instagram again, just like before. However, on Thursday, everyone was surprised when his Instagram account disappeared. Fans were searching for it, but his account was nowhere to be found. Now that his Instagram account is visible again, it's clear that Virat Kohli himself did not deactivate his account. It must have been due to some technical glitch.
Virat Kohli currently lives in London with his family. He has retired from T20 and Test cricket and now only plays the ODI format for Team India. He came to India this month for the ODI series against New Zealand and returned immediately after the series concluded.
Virat Kohli Instagram Controversy
Virat Kohli now rarely posts personal things on any of his social media platforms. Last year, the veteran batsman landed in controversy when he accidentally liked a post by influencer Avneet Kaur. Social media users flooded Instagram with screenshots of Kohli's like on the post, forcing him to issue an official statement on the incident. People also bombarded Anushka Sharma's account with comments, demanding an explanation from the film star.
After the incident went viral, Kohli shared on his Instagram: I want to clarify that while I was clearing my feed, it seems the algorithm accidentally registered an interaction. There was no intention behind it. I request that no unnecessary assumptions be made. Thank you for your understanding.
