Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli have once again shown their fun side and proved why their partnership remains one of the most loved in Indian cricket. Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli have turned the famous ‘Ro-Ko’ nickname into their own joke in a new JioStar advertisement ahead of India’s upcoming ODI series against Sri Lanka.
They have played together for India for nearly two decades, and their friendship and on-field chemistry have always attracted fans. Kohli and Rohit have also embraced the famous ‘Ro-Ko’ tag that was linked with the former Indian captains. They are now comfortable with the nickname. Earlier, Virat Kohli breaks silence on ₹5 crore claim over Premanand Maharaj ashram visit.
Virat Kohli finds the perfect way to tease Rohit Sharma in bew ‘Ro-Ko’ Ad
The advertisement brings out both Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma’s funny sides and gives fans a fun look at their bond as a duo, joking about their nickname and also copying the celebrations of some of their Indian teammates.
The advertisement begins with Rohit and Kohli meeting again after some time. Rohit points out that it has been years, while Kohli reminds him that the fun is still the same.
Rohit said, "Bro, it's been years." To which Kohli said, "Yeah, but it's still just as much fun..." The right-handed batter then says that “our boys are also excited," leading Rohit to respond with his famous ‘woh’. But this time, Kohli plays along with the joke.
Rohit has often used the word ‘who’ while trying to remember or describe someone without taking their name directly, and this time Kohli uses the moment to have some fun with his teammate. Amid this, Ex-RCB star reveals why Virat Kohli cannot be written off at 37.

The former Indian captains then take the comedy even further by copying the celebrations of their teammates. Rohit performs the Indian batter KL Rahul’s famous Kantara celebration, while Kohli understands the reference with cheeky expressions.
When Ravindra Jadeja comes into the discussion, Kohli uses sign language to help Rohit identify him through Jadeja’s famous sword celebration. And then, the Indian batting icons mimicked Shubman Gill’s familiar hat-doffing celebration before suggesting that he is also excited.
At the end, they referred to the ICC ODI World Cup 2027 by saying, "It's a big year; the country is counting on us. This is going to be fun.”

Kohli started the series with a stunning unbeaten 139 off 88 balls in Thiruvananthapuram. It was his 55th ODI century and also took him past the 15,000-run mark in ODI cricket, making him only the second batter after Sachin Tendulkar to reach the milestone.
Rohit also smashed 101 off 75 balls in Guwahati, followed by another brilliant 92 off 85 balls in the third match. India won the ODI series 2-1 against the West Indies.
