Virat Kohli's love for tattoos resurfaces, spotted being inked again

Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli is possibly the greatest source of income for Indian cricket journalism – digital, television or print. His on-field exploits make news every now and then, and so does his captaincy. But beyond his bat and skipper’s hat, the dashing 29-year-old has plenty of other news on offer for the media – his style statement being one of the many.

Two days ago, Kohli was making news for being spotted using a Louis Vuitton Zippy XL wallet in black, the pictures of which went viral on the social media. Similarly, his two brands, Wrogn and One8 are leaving a mark in the fashion industry with their stylish and comfortable products.

A new tattoo, this time on the shoulder 

The Delhiite comes across as a fashion-oriented guy, especially due to his love for tattoos, which he sports on his hands. Following India’s amazing performance in the limited-overs against South Africa, in which Kohli led them to their first ever bilateral series win in the Rainbow Nation, the batsman flew to Mumbai to get himself another tattoo and add to his collection.

Kohli was spotted at a tattoo parlor in Mumbai on Saturday and the pictures of the same have gone viral on the social media. The tattoo artist is seen drawing a tattoo on the skipper’s left shoulder.

Kohli has been rested for the upcoming Nidahas Trophy, where the youngsters and newcomers have been given a chance so that India’s best squad can be decided sooner before the World Cup 2018. Former captain MS Dhoni has also been rested, while in Kohli’s absence, Rohit Sharma will be seen at the helm of the team.

Kohli’s next big assignment will the upcoming eleventh edition of Indian Premier League, in which he has been retained by Royal Challengers Bangalore for a whopping INR 17 crores. The skipper will be eager to lead the side to their first ever IPL trophy.
