Indian cricket stars Virat Kohli and Kuldeep Yadav started their day with devotion by visiting the Shree Mahakaleshwar Temple in Ujjain. This visit happened just a day before the crucial third ODI against New Zealand, which will determine bragging rights after both teams won one game each.
Virat Kohli and Kuldeep Yadav show faith
Kohli and Kuldeep arrived at the temple early in the morning and participated in the BhasmaAarti, one of the most sacred rituals dedicated to Lord Shiva. Dressed simply in traditional clothing, Kohli sat on the floor of Nandi Hall with his hands folded, deeply engaged in prayer. The atmosphere inside the temple, filled with Vedic chants, incense, and the glow of lamps, provided a calm contrast to the pressure of international cricket awaiting them.
From “King” on the Field to Devotee in the Temple
In recent years, Virat Kohli has openly talked about how spirituality influences his life. Friends and fans have noticed how moments of faith help him stay grounded during difficult times and maintain balance during successes. At Mahakaleshwar, there were no cameras—just a cricketer seeking inner peace before facing another high-pressure match for India.
