A New Low: Virat & Anushka Express Disappointment Over Leaked Hotel Room Video

In today’s tech-savvy era, being a public figure comes at a huge price and recently, Virat Kohli had to bear the brunt of it. The cricketer took to social media to share his disappointment over a viral video of his hotel room, shot without his consent. The incident left both him and his wife, Anushka Sharma angry and rightly so.

Sharing the video on Instagram, he wrote, ‘I understand that fans get very happy and excited seeing their favourite players and get excited to meet them and I’ve always appreciated that. But this video here is appalling and it’s made me feel very paranoid about my privacy. If I cannot have privacy in my own hotel room, then where can I really expect any personal space at all?? I’m NOT okay with this kind of fanaticism and absolute invasion of privacy. Please respect people’s privacy and not treat them as a commodity for entertainment.’

Take a look at the video below:

Anushka Sharma too took to her Instagram to express her disappointment.

And not just the power couple, their fans and netizens too voiced their shock over the incident.

One of them wrote about how unsafe this act made her feel

Another suggested suing the management

Many felt it was horrendous and unacceptable

Celebrities are always in the public eye but just like everyone else, they too deserve their moments of privacy. When will people learn to draw a line and be empathetic towards public figures who are just as human as anyone of us. We’ve definitely hit a new low with this incident. What do you think?
