@@rogeredward2158 No shit Sherlock. He said that already
But when time comes age increases its gone
Soooo true
To all the so-called Indian Journalists, this is how an interview needs to be done
Agreed
Hell yeah 🙌
@Andriy Yarmalenko we India have our own language
meanwhile Indian journalists: aapko bulandiyo ki shikhar pe pohouch kar kaisa lag raha hai ???
@Andriy Yarmalenkolol... virat is from india
Can't explain how happy it makes me to watch our nation's biggest idol on this beautiful show. Jai Hind! 🇮🇳🔥
Thank you Graham
Inspiration find your mojo and deliver everything will be in place
Arey bhai aap
I can see, one great personality praising admiring another super duper great personality.
I see you on most VK videos.
Respect
I swear. Virat with Graham. 🔥🔥🔥
then don't
Meanwhile Indian journalists: Tell us about your crush in high school
So true
This comment is probably the most relevant thing I heard as of today.
Hahahha
🤣😂👌
Main reason is most of the indians wants to see it. Main fault is ours.🤡
“Missing the match was not an option”... What a guy !!!
Hmm
my cousin's dad died as well...he is in the same position as kolhi i m pretty sure he has never seen this video and he said the same words
@@ishaantickoo2153 Yes bro these things have a big impact on the mindset. But the person needs to be strong enough to handle it that way. Many unfortunately arent.
I'm sorry, but this doesn't somehow sit well with me. The same man that said this missed three crucial Test matches a year later, for the birth of his daughter. Fatherhood and family are important, and that it takes precedence over anything else you do in life, agreed! Then, wasn't being with the family when his dad passed on, equally important? You could argue that he was young, but he justifies what he did was right till this day. I'm sorry, but it does sound hypocritical to me. Nothing to take away from the fact that he is a phenomenal batsman, and the best in all formats of this generation.
@@kaushikraj6007 he didn't got his dad when he needed so he knows the importance of a father to a daughter
Easy to troll, Easy to say "He is not best", But deep down you need to Agree this man has separate fan base !!!
Yes bro, he is really the best now!
True it's easy to say he is not the best but deep down we all know He is the best✌️
We dont need anyone's appreciation for him , we know who he is
💯
Best👀 He is already in the GOATs list
Kohli is an inspiration for people across all fields,not just cricket.
Unfortunately not many people know this. Thanks for the interview like this.

Superb bro👍😘🙏🎁
Exactly his qualities can be directed to any profession to make your Best Version
As a Pakistani, I have immense respect for Kohli. This kid is something else.
@Ayush Tripathi why abuse man?
Thanku bro 🤞
@Ayush Tripathi he said a nice thing about an indian, and you are abusing him!!!!!!....show respect and love.
then you will get it.
@@khabibmcgregor972 Naz said it right. Give someone respect & you'll get it. Doesn't matter he is indian or Pakistani or from anywhere. If he said it right then there is no reason to abuse him.
Bhai yaha jitne bhi Indians gaali de rhe h unka dil pe. Mat lo imm also an Indian❤❤aur wo sab immature hai
He would have been proud of you like the whole india is... KING KOHLI
Whole world ❤️🥺😍
Yess
Yeah King Kohli best
His father will be so proud of him. He is the best batsmen in the world now.. Such an inspirational person..😭
Yes definitely.
Whatever that Virat Kohli is today, it's all because of his father who wanted him to play at highest level and he was the source to bring in that confidence in Virat. Virat was completely a different package when he started playing in way back in 2010-11 for Team India and today he is lot more different than he was before. His hunger for runs still proves that he is ready to go and achieve more. He is well focused, determined and well disciplined. He is truly a great person.
Virat does very few interviews but very classy interviews.
Truh
The way he carries himself, with so much dignity, completely differently from his on field persona.
Its funny 😂😂
@@bindiyabathari9988 funny for u shit🤫🖕
Class is just an illusion my freind.
I lost my Dad when i was 17. He died of heart attack at the age of 48. I can tell you its changes your life overnight.
Sorry to here that bro
But can you please elaborate how it changed your life.......so that others can know

I lost my father 2 months ago when I turned 17 and a week old. He was 46 and I lost him to Brain tumor and 5 months of paralysis.
6:28 - I'm going to play for my country & I'm going to play this game at highest level.
Yes Sir, YOU DID. 😊 You became the best player ever in the GAME. ❤️
My father taught him Mathematics when he was in 9th class in saviour convent Sr secondary school. He's very proud of him whatever he is today....
He always tell us about how bad he's in mathematics... But now he's very proud of him....

@@hemantsajjan3181 yes, even pakistani fans are not like these Indian fans, even they don't critisize their players.
In fact, most of them are virat fans
@@your_dad_18 I don't agree with u iam virats die hard fan but I love to see others scoring century
What you win in life?😂😆
I remember when Virat came to the scene I use to hate him with a passion due to his brash attitude....but over the years I understood that the brashness was misinterpreted by many, its the deep passion, competitive nature, grit and determination that I have never seen in anybody. Now I am happy to say he turned from someone I used to hate to being my Idol!!...I now have immense amount of respect for Virat for all he brings on and off the field
Well said brother. Millions wl agree wid u.
This guy made us realise why people shouldn't be judgemental. I went through this also.from hating him to idolizing him..he taught us to compete wid no one but self.
I feel the same
Initially I thought like this.now he is my all time favourite
Exactly my thoughts but i loved him from the start! ❤️🔥
I feel the same too
I used to hate this man but over the years he earned my respect because of his performance, sportsmanship and determination. Now he is one of my favourites.
He is very strong mentally 🤯🤯
There's no other option in such circumstances
i think his mindset is very similiar to cristanio ronaldo
@@dharminacharya don't compare him with cristiano ronaldo
@@abhidaddy384 why which one are you saying better huh!?
@@nitinkapoor1369 Neither, messi is better hhahah
4:30 '' Not going to a match was not option I ever ahead. ''
Hats off to it's passion
He didn't cried in the interview... But I almost did. Such a Gem Virat ♥️
Some ppl call him aggressive,over attitude....and nobody knows that is the greatest strength of this man.....And and he is set to achieve more milestones... can't stop him
Who said virat never struggled in his life.
Noone
no one
Noone
No one says that
No one said that everyone knows he struggled a lot
Never judge someone from where they are now with their life, often times we don’t see what they’ve been through.
So true

@@sanketpatil4039 auto correct 😤
🙏🙏🙏
What happened in 2014?
He is going through another important phase of his career where he isn't getting runs. Want to see him making another comeback
I wasn't actually a fan of VIRAT KOHLI, but this video completely changed my opinion and motivated me in a BIG WAY. Thanks a lot, Virat Kohli & Graham.
I wasn't his fan too.. I felt he was arrogant N had attitude.. I started liking him more cuz my sister in law liked him.. N now I know why she admires him
Why do you think so we can get the same from the old ones in case they get the same here what they did last time for the first time in the..... Understand?
VIRAT KOHLI - Definition of COMMITMENT - A 16 year old guy's father passes away at 2 am
Bcz of his father's dream to want him play for 🇮🇳, he goes in morning to bat & saves match for team by scoring 90 runs
Then, goes to father's funeral same evening👑🇮🇳🙏
ABSOLUTE RESPECT!!! YOUR FATHER WOULD HAVE BEEN VERY PROUD OF YOU SIR 🙏
It's ok bro we understand that but stop commenting the same thing everywhere, it shows you and Virat in wrong light
You don't have some work? Always writing this everywhere, literally everywhere.
True champion virat
@@SS-vm8oq and you are reading it everywhere.. lol 😂
Get your facts right bloody idiot he was 18
This is inspiring to hear form someone who has lost his father. I lost mine 2 days ago and I am using his passing as motivation to be better and more successful than ever. I am doing it because it's what he wanted. We spoke over the last few months and I told him that I am going to succeed for him and for my son. It's what he wanted for me.
Ayeee man you can do it ✌️✌️
and he is playing at the highest level...hats off captain!
The reason I love Virat is that he talks straight to the point and doesn't beat behind the bush. He straight away said that cricket was his first priority even after his father's demise. This is why he is the most deserving player of the century!!!!
It really broke me down at 2.42..he tried his best to hide his emotions. I have a huge respect for him as a person and a player.may he be blessed with the best
VIR🔥T
Inspiration for billions of people across all formats!!
Yayyyy❤️💯
Yesss😜🙏😎👍
That incident made him virattt in the real manner.....😍
WOW 😳 GREATEST EVER MENTALLY AND PROVES HIMSELF PHYSICALLY ON THE GROUND ! Lots lots lots of love from 🇵🇰
Last 40 seconds differentiates between you and rest of the people
NO ONE TO SOMEONE=VIRAT KOHLI He is not a cricketer he is an inspiration
So proud to see such a remarkably intelligent, sensitive and focused individual as Kohli is leading Indian cricket team to new heights. I will say that Kohli will end up as the greatest captain and cricketer India ever had.
He is the strongest man mentally I have ever seen.
He's very strong inside out. Huge respect for these types of guys. Tough man
This man is a legend...🙏
Virat,if you're reading this.
I want you to know that, you're our hero...
Not because you're the best batsman of the world right now...
But because of your passion and the love for the game...❤️❤️👍
Proud of you man...🙏🙌
Graham bensinger did a good job, virat kohli is my favourite batsman, Graham asked every single detail of his life. Loved it Graham Bensinger.
When my father died, I frequently lose much more than the person of my Dad. It’s often surprising to me how the world doesn’t stop at his passing. I'm acutely aware of his passing, and when the world doesn’t share that same awareness it can leave the grieving me feeling terribly alone and isolated from a world that doesn’t seem to understand. Many of my experience a sense of being an orphan even if my mother is still alive because they feel so alone in the world. This sense of vulnerability is compounded by the fact that for many of us our fathers served as a kind of shield. We knew that we could count on dad for help and advice when things turned against us. With his father gone, the son may not know where he can turn in a crisis and feel vulnerable and afraid. This holds true as well for men who had a negative or non-existent relationship with their fathers. While dad may not have been a protector or provider, I still feel vulnerable and alone, often feeling that they are the only ones that can break negative cycles in their families.
Really father's death changed my life as well in 2017 he was passed away & now 2 years I look my self more passionate, more responsible man & hungry to do something big for my family I know it's too hard but when I saw Virat Kholi I'm inspired from his life. How he was fighting for his dreams & now he had Successful person not just for his family is also for his Country. Love from Pakistan :))
god bless you Shahzaib...all the best fr future

Same here dude absolutely true it's very devastating
It's very hurtful to manage 😭😭😭😭😭
@@sanjanagupta9993 Yes! Its shows real-life how our society dealing when someone Passed away but don't worry God's plan is so much better than our plans. For me always do good deeds in your life then you see the results your life better day by day its my own experience

I can relate to the pain with you Virat, same thing happened with me and my dad in 2007.

Its time
He did.

Most passionate person ever in history of cricket

Thats true. The pain of loss never makes you cry but makes you strong. It is actually the console that lets your emotions pop out.
I lost my father in june 2022..i have gone through the same thing.. That time i had no emotions idk why but i still remember his tear in his eyes he struggled he fought.. Next day it was my final semester exam i didn't left the paper as my father was happy that u would be graduated.. I still think why it happened to me.. The world hasn't stopped.. Still going on but somewhere my world has changed
It goes to show how powerful our human mind can be....to be able to hold back tears and conduct this interview from tears at the time of his father's passing. To show " mental toughness, supreme focus + concentration " to move on and play cricket straight after is truly remarkable !!! " RESPECT !!!!!
I hate when people compare him to smith and vice versa. Great players should be supported always
Man, he is the exact copy of Cristiano Ronaldo. Elite mentality!❤️
BULLSHIT.Kohli is the goat of his game but Ronaldo isn't
AB is Messi

@@RegionalManagerDunderMifflin I have watched enough football to know who the true goat is.I am not disrespecting Ronaldo first of all he is a great player but not goat which means greatest of all time and there can be only one right so he isn't the one.
@@manitgandhi7430 who told kohli is the goat of cricket dont mess with ronaldo asshole..
oh man , this guy attitude and focus is on different level. if he can stay dedicated to the game even at the death of his father. nothing is going to dislodge him. gentleman i love your attitude and dedication you bring on field. you are truly one genius. all the best and keep shining. and mind you all i am pakistani but i have no doubt to admit he is among the two three batsman i can pay anything to watch them play live. go virat go!
I watched him for the first time live at a test match in india just after this interview and man trust me just seeing this guy was giving ne goosebumps! ❤
And there are so called cricket fans, critising for every bad thing that happens to the team although he always gives his 100%
God put you through test only because he knows you can pass it all 🙏 keep the hustle 💯

The amount of respect I hav for this man can never be lost no matter how many times he unintentionally screws up. I love you, Virat bro.
The kind of reply he gives.. Takes him to a next level.
I mean juss look at his confidence man 🤩
King 👑 Kohli for a reason 😎
Kohli - - Father wanted me to play at highest level...
Now see, you're the Best In The world now
You are playing at the highest level.
You are inspiration to this generation.
After you retire, I will proudly say that I watch the live performance of the world greatest batsman in the history of cricket.
This mindset, is exceptional, I am pretty sure you can accomplish everything in any era. You are a masterclass.
You are better than Bradman,Viv,Miandad,Gavaskar,Lara,Sachin,Dravid, and anyother cricketer born till date.

Losing parents at young age specially teenage is most tragic thing that can happen.It opens the door of depression if you can't deal with reality.World keeps functioning in same way but your inner world I.e your mind is completely changed.And that hurts most.And if you don't have supportive people around you can have serious mental issues.
I agree.
Im sorry to hear!
I lost my father when I was 12. Again I lost my mother when I was 24.
my father passed away when i was 11 years old. my grandma passed away after few years(she was the most important person to me after my father)but i went blank i didn't cried. i don't know why.i had my 10th board exams back then.
Sorry for your loss bro I can feel your pain may God be with you and hope he gives you the strength to come out of it....
the exact same has happened with me brdr back in 2017 my father and 2019 my grandmother
i don't know why life is such unfair
for someone so smooth for someone so fucking difficult .
one thing every one should learn now or then but family is everything desires goals are nothing man
I think it actually happens with a lot of people. My grandfather died when I was 11-12 years old. Even though we didn't really connect that often due to living in different cities, it was a really sad moment. It was the first time that someone important in my life died. And I really couldn't cry at his funeral, felt uneasy but not even a single drop of tear. Don't know what the reason was, maybe that it was my first time at a crematorium, but I felt really awkward that day.
may they rest in peace
Even when my father passed away my brother was completely broken but he didn't cry I asked him later y u didn't cry then he said it's a lifetime punishment for me u ppl cry and heal the pain but i dont want to get healed
It's happened with everyone who lost Father in Teenage, life completely changed and dreams vanished 😢
Yes absolutely true it's very devastating 😭
I lost my dad 3 days back and it’s very painful... i need to be strong and take care of family..... indeed when he was admitted in hospital I stayed with him in the hospital almost 21 days, seeing him sinking day by day was difficult, Was just unexpected. Now to be strong is only option left
Yes facing the exact situation currently .he was completely alright 2 days before death and then this happened.
Faced exactly the same situation like u nd lost my dad..it hurts so badly💔
Kohli's interviews are a joy to watch
Having lost my father, who meant my world, this interview only strengthens my resolve.
my father died of cardiac arrest just before my mbbs final exam, i just went blank like him..
Rip
Nobody can get to the place where this man is in my heart
He is my idol
He is my forever captain
Virat is a KING, his dedication towards passion brings out such a positive and inspiring perspective, despite all these toughest situations that no one can handle, his determination and vision was out of the world.
Earned a lot of respect in my heart.
He's totally changed.
Hatred in my heart for him turned to love today.
May Allah bless him to get him through right path.
🇵🇰 ❤️ 🇮🇳
I lost my father at 11, its the most tough thing to deal with
I feel so sorry
sorry.

That incident made him, to be the best and stronger #loveubro 💜 to achieve something great all you need is to be focussed.
Imagining myself in place of kohli in his father's case gave me goosebumps and i started crying 😶
