Indian opener Shikhar Dhawan and Indian captain Virat Kohli are very good friends. Recently, Dhawan revealed Kohli’s favourite types of songs.
On last Thursday (12th September), the Delhi and District Cricket Association (DDCA) officially renamed the Feroz Shah Kotla Stadium as Arun Jaitley Stadium.

On the same night, the DDCA and BCCI inaugurated the Virat Kohli Stand. One of the stands of Feroz Shah Kotla Stadium has been named after the Indian captain. It is the special honour for Virat Kohli’s extraordinary achievements as an Indian cricketer. Many believe that Kohli is one of the greatest batsmen in international cricket history. Currently, the right-handed batsman is the no.2-ranked Test and no.1-ranked ODI batsman.
During that special night at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium, the host Manish Paul asked the Indian head coach Ravi Shastri what kind of songs Kohli favoured to listen. Shastri claimed that Shikhar Dhawan would answer better on this.

In reply, Dhawan asked, “Before marriage or after marriage?”
Then, Dhawan revealed Kohli’s favourite types of songs. The Indian opener claimed that Kohli loved Punjabi songs, favoured to listen to the songs of Gurdas Maan. Dhawan further added that Kohli also liked to hear Arijit Singh’s romantic songs.
Along with the Indian team members, Kohli was present on that special night with his wife, Anushka Sharma.
