00:00The journey of Virat, he used to eat everything and my roommate used to order food every night and I was a bit disciplined.
00:06He used to order butter naan, dal makhani, if it was for the night then he used to order minced meat, mutton, roganjosh, he used to order all of that.
00:18He didn't care that he was a bit chubby.
00:30Every person is unique, there is no one like you in the world, so it is important to recognize your uniqueness, it is very important to know your strength and then use it in your work, that is very important.
00:57Virat's aggression is channelized in his batting, it comes from his focus.
01:03Everyone knows that Shikhar is from Delhi, I am from Delhi and the one thing that we know is that we get aggression, correct?
01:12Everyone has aggression, now you talked about Virat and everyone has seen your friendship on social media, you have seen both of them dancing, you have seen both of them laughing at each other.
01:24The journey of Virat Kohli, his evolution, how do you look at that?
01:30Now you can say it.
01:34Should I say it?
01:38So the journey of Virat, when he was 17 years old, he came to the Ranji Trophy team with us, I was his senior then, I am 3-4 years older than him.
01:48So his career started when he was under 19, and at that time he used to eat everything, chole bhature, mutton, he used to eat everything and my roommate used to order every night and I was a little disciplined, I was disciplined from the beginning, I didn't eat all those things.
02:06I have seen that time also, at that time he didn't care that much that he is chubby, he doesn't work out that much, but suddenly he got a power inside him that he felt something in his heart and he switched it, and after that he stopped eating carbs for a while and he completely leaned himself, now I can't even say size 0.
02:33So he leaned himself and his willpower is very strong, he is an extremist that he still maintained that thing, so reaching one place is one thing, maintaining that place is another thing.
02:49Shikhar Dhawan, Virat Kohli, on a tour, both of them are sharing the hotel room together, chilling and ordering food, at that time how would Virat Kohli place the order on the room service by picking up the phone, what would he place?
03:01He would place the order of butter naan, dal makhani, if it was for the night then he would place the order of mince, mutton, rogan josh, he used to place the order of all that, now not anymore.
