How did tattooing begin?
This tattoo began with the redesign of a Shiva-inspired armband. Subsequently, the design evolves into an intricate mandala pattern, executed using the dotwork technique. This pattern creates a fluid flow across the entire arm, forming the foundation of the tattoo sleeve. The piece also incorporates floral elements—such as lotuses and peonies—which are regarded as symbols of strength, growth, and inner balance. However, the personal significance underlying these designs has not been fully disclosed to the public, thereby preserving an air of mystery around the piece.

Virat Kohli has got his tattoo done halfway
The studio also revealed that this tattoo sleeve has been deliberately left unfinished. The reason for this is that new experiences, changes, and achievements entering Kohli's life will continue to be added to this tattoo in the future. In other words, this tattoo will not merely symbolize a single moment, but will serve as a living document and a testament to his entire journey.
