Kohli requests understanding and togetherness during Eid
During a riveting talk with Bangladesh's Tamim Iqbal in a Facebook live meet, India captain Virat Kohli wished everyone in Bangladesh a happy Eid and asked for togetherness during a down economy, with coronavirus affecting everyone and confining persons indoors.
"Virat bhai, Eid is coming so do you want to wish the persons of Bangladesh Eid Mubarak?" Tamim asked Kohli towards the end of the show.
Kohli's press conferences always showcase his clarity of thought and it had been no different this time as the India captain asked for people from worldwide to stop looking at the other person differently and weather the existing storm when you are compassionate and understanding of each other's situations during the pandemic.
"I'd like to wish everyone a happy Eid. Everyone is spending time with their own families and we must enjoy that. The time we 're going through ought to be a memorable time spent with family. Also, I'd like to wish that everyone can celebrate this Eid with a smile despite all the challenges," he said while wishing everyone.
He remarked that people ought to be understanding through the ongoing pandemic, since many people are trying to fight the virus.
"Hopefully things will become alright. Obviously, we will all pray together. I don't believe it's a time where we look at the other person differently and say things like 'this is going on there, or that's happening there' because everyone is at the same level of these times. Everyone is fighting it," Kohli concluded.
