India cricketer Virat Kohli is not only known for his batting skills but also for his flamboyant style. Several of his fans try to copy his style like the tattoos on his arms, the hair style and beard. But can you imagine this Punjabi munda from Delhi in a rural Rajasthani avatar? But an artist did exactly that and the result was absolutely epic.
A Jodhpur-based artist and illustrator Teju Jangid imagined Kohli in a rural Rajasthani avatar and made a digital portrait of the cricketer and also shared it on Instagram after which it immediately went viral.
In the video the artist can be seen editing a picture of Kohli who is wearing a Test match jersey. Soon he adds a kurta, a locket and a red turban to Kohli's pic that he is editing. He also places a wooden stick in his hand and adds a moustache on his face and thickens his beard giving him a complete Rajasthani look.
"@virat.kohli in rural Rajasthani look," read the caption of the post shared by Teju Jangid. Since being shared, the post has garnered more than 2.5 million views, 477,034 likes and tons of comments.
