Virat Kohli Must Follow Thalapathy Vijay Now?

Tamil actor Thalapathy Vijay created a piece of new history after becoming the CM in his very first attempt. He is the first actor to become achieve minister and his very first independent election campaign in recent decades.

The best thing about Vijay was that he was able to perfectly utilise his cinema craze to build a solid platform at the fundamental level, and then make the big political plunge at the right time.

Many of the people who watched this remarkable journey of Vijay very closely commenting that cricketer, Virat Kohli could also potentially do something similar.

The main point that they are making here is that Virat Kohli is the most popular cricketer of this generation in India. The kind of anticipation that RCB could generate over the years, despite being unsuccessful for 18 years is almost entirely due to Kohli’s craze.

Even last night, when Virat Kohli’s RCB won the IPL trophy for the second season, the kind of celebrations that were seen in Andhra Pradesh, Telangana and Karnataka were beyond exceptional.

After watching all that has been happening, a few people have funny remarked that Virat Kohli also has humongous following across the country and perhaps he must take a lesson from Vijay’s rise to power in Tamil Nadu. They are suggesting that even Virat Kohli might test equal success, if not more considering his craze.

However, just because something worked in the case of Vijay in Tamil Nadu does not mean, it could potentially work for other celebrities.

More importantly, Virat Kohli does not have any aspirations as such. He has been staying in London with his family for the most part and very well be settling down there once he retires.

A person who is so very apolitical and away from the country on a constant basis, there could be very little desire to entire the brutally demanding and morally bankrupt Indian politics.
