India’s captain Virat Kohli is arguably one of the fittest cricketers in the world and set the benchmark for fitness in the sport. It is pretty much visible through his athletic fielding, swift running between the wickets, and delivering the power-hitting when required. On the occasion of Fit India Movement on the 24th September 2020, Prime Minister Narendra Modi will interact with Virat Kohli.

Apart from Virat Kohli, the conversation will also involve celebrities like Milind Soman and fitness influencers like Rutuja Diwekar to share stories and tips of their journey to becoming fit. Narendra Modi will, in turn, guide and reveal his thoughts on fitness and good health. The importance of fitness holds in not only any sport but also life in general for day to day activities.

Virat Kohli, who is currently in the UAE, captaining the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in the Indian Premier League, underlined that in times of COVID-19, fitness has further become important. The 31-year old said that the conversation would be about nutrition, wellness, and various other facets of life.

In times of Covid-19 pandemic, fitness has become an even more important aspect of life. The dialogue will see a timely and fruitful conversation on nutrition, wellness and various other aspects of fitness,” Kohli stated as quoted by News18.

Virat Kohli’s RCB also opened their campaign with a victory over SunRisers Hyderabad on Monday in Dubai. Though Kohli could make only 14, his captaincy was spot on as it helped his side eke out an unlikely ten-run victory over the Orange Army. They will play their next game on Thursday at the same venue against Kings XI Punjab.
