Of late, social media has become a great platform for advertising. The celebrities use them to advertise their product with the fans. Much to the same, the skipper of the Indian National Cricket Team Virat Kohli and his Delhi teammate Rishabh Pant shot an advertisement for the Himalayan company. Meanwhile, Brad Hodge makes a comment, which didn’t go well with the fans.
Indian captain Virat Kohli and wicket-keeper batsman Rishabh Pant recently starred in an advertisement for a company to promote face care products. The duo, who are brand ambassadors of the company, can be seen grooving on a quirky song in the ad. Both were seen rapping about the benefits of the product.
Meanwhile, the former Australian batsman Brad Hodge took a dig at the skipper and the wicketkeeper-batsman Rishabh Pant by saying that these days people do everything for money. The comment didn’t do well with the fans, as they replied with harsh comments.
“Amazing what people do for money,” read his post on Virat Kohli’s advertising tweet.

Recently, Virat Kohli joined the brand and quoted that he is pretty happy to be joining with such a brand. He added that Himalayan is one of his favourites brand, which did reasonably well in the market so far. Further, Virat Kohli added that he would like to have a long run with the brand.
“I am very excited to be a part of Team Himalaya and be the ambassador for their Men’s Face Wash range. Himalaya is a trusted brand and one of my favourite brands too! I have been a patron of Himalaya products for a long time now. I look forward to a long association with Himalaya MEN!,” Kohli said.

How is it bothering you ? Is it because you dont hav any work & sitting idle ? Or is it because you didnt earn anything in this season of ipl . Dont know why australians are too much bothered about Indian Cricketers even when they cant control their own mates (ball tempering ?).

Brad Hodge responds to the criticism:
In the end, Brad Hodge responds to all the negative comments from the Indian fans. Brad Hodge quoted that he would do that even if he paid by the sponsors.
Amazing how brutal people are in response. So negative and glass half full. I was not speaking in a negative tone. I would do the same if asked and paid.
