Star cricketer Virat Kohli has dismissed reports alleging he made a Rs 5 crore donation to Radha Keli Kunj Ashram, clarifying the extent of his involvement with the spiritual institution. The clarification comes amid widespread circulation of the donation claim on social media and news platforms across the country.
Kohli and Sharma have been known to visit the ashram on multiple occasions. Their first significant visit to the facility was documented on January 4, 2023, marking the beginning of their public association with the spiritual centre in India.
The couple's visits to spiritual and religious sites have been a subject of media interest in the past. Their patronage of various institutions reflects their personal inclinations toward spiritual practices, though the extent of their financial commitments to such organizations has remained largely private.
The denial by Kohli addresses speculation that had gained traction in recent weeks regarding the magnitude of his charitable contributions. The cricketer's representative indicated that while the family maintains cordial relations with the ashram, the reported figure does not accurately represent any transaction between the parties involved.
