Virat Kohli’s statement of ‘leave India’ has created quite a bit of stir in the country over the past few days. While a few of them have backed the Indian captain, the cricketer has copped a lot of criticism from many. Even the film actor Siddharth went on to say that Kohli made a mistake and wasn’t pleased a bit with it. However, Kohli’s fans have hurled a lot of abuse it seems at the actor that he has expressed his disappointment over it.

Coming back to Kohli’s statement, while answering the mean tweets and comments in a video on his official app, the 30-year-old looked clearly miffed with a fan saying that he didn’t see anything special in his batting and rather liked Australian and England batsmen. In response to the same, Kohli had advised him to leave the country for not liking the Indian cricketers.

After getting lashed out for his statement, he also clarified his stance on the matter while also saying that he has the ‘freedom of choice’.

Siddharth posts a series of tweets

Siddharth, like many celebrities, chose to speak on the issue and criticised Virat Kohli for his controversial statement and believed that it was an idiotic set of words used from the Indian captain. While it was an opinion from the actor like many gave, the designated Kohli fans didn’t like it even a bit it seems.

If you want to remain #KingKohli it may be time to teach yourself to think 'What would Dravid say?' before speaking in future. What an idiotic set of words to come from an #India #captain! https://t.co/jVsoGAESuM

Meanwhile, Ravi Ashwin also asked the famous actor on what is the issue which is bothering now and it will be interesting to see if Siddharth comes up with a response.

Here are the tweets:

The comments section reveals why we as a nation are getting our rear end kicked by #FakeNews. In this case the news is clearly poor parody… Just the reactions are not. The credibility of #TimesNow being in the crapper isn't helping. This one is #TimesHow! https://t.co/IgvVaRDP9L

We used to lament audience behavior in some cricket stadiums which refused to applaud opponent team performances. TIL that young followers of the game today are so obsessed with their stars they cannot even hear people point out their mistakes. This cannot be good for the game.

I didn't know crickets fans could speak with such hatred. I've been a lover of the gentleman's game since I was a little kid 35 years ago. When did cricket talk become mean and abusive? Is nothing free from this vitriol these days? Social media is like #Delhi air. Worse everyday!
