Virat Kohli is the latest sports sensation in the country. The 27-year-old Indian cricketer is on a roll and has made us witness some of the most spectacular moments in Indian cricket in the recent past. Not only in the country, but he is one of the most successful cricketers in the world currently.
In terms of brand value, Kohli stands in line with the likes of Bollywood actor Ranbir Kapoor with his income from brand endorsements outnumbering the same from cricket.
Reportedly, Kohli raked in a handsome sum of Rs 100 crore the previous year and with the current streak of his great performances, this number is surely going to witness a spike now. Yet there is something that makes him scared of going 'bankrupt' in future.
According to GQ magazine, Virat is scared about his future financial status.
He said, "I’ve begun to think about my future. About how to secure it. Money doesn’t motivate me, but it’s important. I’ve gotten accustomed to a certain financial environment. It’s important to sustain that. I’ve seen so many athletes bankrupt at the end of their career. It’s scary,” reports the magazine.
