Bengaluru, July 31: Indian captain Virat Kohli has a stand on many social issues and he has not been reluctant to express it publicly and stick by it with conviction.
Gender equality and treating women with respect have been hot topics of discussion in recent times and Kohli has aired his view through a video for a watch company he endorses. His view - treat women with respect and be a gentleman.
"This is your time Virat, that's what they keep telling me. And sometimes, I think maybe it is. I used to feel proud then that I've become a man in this world who's made it to the pages. But now, I'm only ashamed. Men of this world have forgotten how to behave with the ladies. And yet, while this world isn't, time is fair and it belongs to all of us. So take it. This is your time. Be a gentleman," Kohli said in the video.
