Watch: 'Don't have time for grudges' - Virat Kohli shares strong video after Naveen-ul-Haq's cryptic Instagram stories
Virat Kohli shared a strong message on his official Instagram profile following Naveen-ul-Haq's cryptic stories on the social media platform on Tuesday.
India's star batter Virat Kohli has been in the midst of controversies over the past few weeks in the 2023 Indian Premier League. Last month, the eagled-eyed fans noticed a no-handshake between Kohli and former BCCI President Sourav Ganguly, that created a furore on social media. While the two did meet warmly on RCB's return leg to Delhi Capitals last week, Kohli's ugly spat with Gautam Gambhir after RCB's game against Lucknow Super Giants -- that took place on May 1 -- continues to draw opinions on Twitter.
Kohli initially had a tussle with LSG's Afghanistan bowler Naveen-ul-Haq during the match; following the game, Naveen and Kohli had a full-blown argument following which the former pushed RCB star's hand. Kohli, then, had a spat with Gambhir, who is the mentor for the Super Giants. And it seems the argument wasn't confined to the field; on Tuesday, Naveen-ul-Haq posted a couple of cryptic Instagram stories that fans deduced to be a dig at Kohli – the Afghanistan bowler posted one of the stories when MI required 8 runs to win in the 17th over.

And now, it seems Virat Kohli has also come up with a response through the same medium. Kohli shared a video of Kevin Hart, renowned American actor and comedian, who spoke on “grudges” and moving on from “negativity.”
“No matter how much emotions and feeling that you have, or how much hurt you have, the life has to go on. Life doesn't stop for anybody. So if you don't process that, and understand you're stuck in whatever time period it is, you are hurt forever. Grudges, anger, negativity… I don't have time for it. Because I'm living so many positive things. I can't stand in the past, and bathe in what was wrong,” Hart could be heard saying in the video.
