With Anushka, I will definitely do my own biopic: Virat Kohli
India and Royal Challengers Bangalore skipper Virat Kohli has revealed that he will “definitely” do his own biopic if his wife Bollywood actress and producer Anushka Sharma stars in it. Kohli was speaking to India’s football captain Sunil Chhetri during an Instagram live session. However, Kohli also said that he would want to clear up the misconception that he is a good actor.
"With Anushka, I will definitely do the biopic myself. But let me clear up this misunderstanding that I can act. I can play football also, will you let me play in ISL?" Kohli said funnily.
"Acting is an art. I am not an artiste. I am a professional cricketer. However, I can act in my own biopic because I can play my own role quite well. Because if anyone else plays the role better than me then I’d look quite useless," add the Indian skipper.
Kohli also credited Anushka Sharma for making him the person he is now.
"I wasn't this person always. I believe that everyone has a giving and compassionate side to them but there is always an individual that comes in your life who brings it out," said the 31-year-old.
"For me, meeting Anushka was that moment when I started to realize that this is not all about me. Life is to look at another person and live like that.
"Then you become confident of who you are. She (Anushka) made me realize that the position that I am in, it is so important for me to try and change things around me for the better... If someone comes to me with a problem and if I am in a position to do it, I will always do it," he continued.
The Indian captain also said that he used to like to be in his comfort zone earlier but that has changed for better and now he realizes the importance of companionship.
"Before I met her, I was very self-centred, very focused on things I wanted to do, and maintain my comfort zone. The comfort zone was a big thing. When you meet a person that you love, you want to do things for the other person and you have to open up. The constant conversations that we always had were that it is not always about thinking for yourself, it is about companionship. That is something that she taught me when she came into my life," he said.
