India and Bangladesh are currently engaged in a two-match Test series. India secured a 280-run victory in the first Test in Chennai, taking a 1-0 lead. The second Test, scheduled in Kanpur from September 27 to October 1, is highly anticipated. However, a video circulating on social media has caught everyone’s attention ahead of this match, supposedly showing Virat Kohli kissing Gautam Gambhir.
This viral clip has sparked discussions across platforms, particularly because of the tense relationship between Virat Kohli and Head Coach Gautam Gambhir. Over the years, the two have been involved in several public confrontations, especially during the Indian Premier League (IPL).
What is the truth behind the viral video of Virat Kohli kissing Gautam Gambhir?
Upon investigation, it has been revealed that the video in question is not real but a product of Artificial Intelligence (AI). The clip was fabricated, and the purported scene of Kohli kissing Gambhir is a work of fiction. This highlights the growing issue of misinformation, where AI-generated content can be easily mistaken for reality. Verifying the authenticity of such sensational material is crucial in the digital age.
While it’s true that Kohli and Gambhir have had their differences in the past, including several on-field disputes during the IPL, they have since moved forward. The two now focus on a common goal: the progress of Indian cricket. Gambhir serves as the head coach of the Indian team, while Kohli remains one of its key players.
A brief about Kohli and Gambhir’s relationship
Virat Kohli and Gautam Gambhir have shared a complex relationship, marked by both friendship and conflict. They were teammates for India, achieving notable success, including winning the 2011 ICC Cricket World Cup. However, their disagreements, particularly during IPL matches, have made headlines. Despite a heated confrontation during IPL 2023, their current roles as player and coach suggest a more positive chapter in their relationship.
