India captain Virat Kohli, who is an advertiser’s dream was spotted at a Tissot function where India’s rising stars from other sports (Not Cricket) were present. While Kohli was in the podium, tennis star Karman Kaur Thandi came up for a selfie. The tennis star, who is taller than Kohli, put the cricketer in distress as Kohli tried to match her height for the perfect picture and got trolled on social media for trying to do it.

The event was organised by Tissot, a brand the cricketer endorses. The event took place in a plush five-star hotel in Bandra. Other sports stars who graced the occasion were basketballer Satnam Singh, Aadil Bedi, Shivani Kataria, Sachika Kumar Ingale, Jehan Daruwala, Pinky Rani and Manoj Kumar.
Here is how Kohli faced the heat on social media for his attempt to look tall.
He didn’t stand like that in front of PV SINDHU. Clearly it’s got something to do with the arrangements made there or the difference in occasion which needs addressing. But if you want to prove your point to win the argument, you are welcome.

You can be anything but the woman can’t be taller than the man.
Such fragile ego.
