Virat Kohli recently posted a video of wife Anushka Sharma shaming a man who was throwing garbage on the streets. In his post, the 29-year-old cricketer wrote, “Saw these people throwing garbage on the road & pulled them up rightfully. Travelling in a luxury car and brains gone for a toss. These people will keep our country clean? Yeah right! If you see something wrong happening like this, do the same & spread awareness.” While this was Kohli’s way of supporting Sharma as well as spreading awareness about keeping the place clean, the video has received a mixed reaction from people on social media.

Why are you recording your wife’s heroics and publishing it in social media??.. is this the first time you saw someone threw a plastic cover from a car?? If your intention was to advice him, first be friendly instead of being bossy.. this kinda attention seeking is so cheap😬

Courage is needed to break conformist social behaviours too. It doesn’t always mean fighting goons. If 4 of your friends are doing something that you clearly know is unacceptable, it still requires toughness to stand up & point it out.
