Virat Kohli is the centre of attraction in almost all of the cricket matches he is involved in. And the India batter was shown immense love and respect at the Ekana Stadium on Monday (May 1).

Kohli, who is playing for the away side RCB, was by far the most supported player in the stadium. And a fan took matters into his own hands.

During the match between RCB and LSG, a fan intruded into the field after climbing the fences. The fan first went down to his knees and then touched Kohli's feet, and in reply, Kohli gave him a warm hug. After getting the hug, the fan was ecstatic and climbed back into the stands by himself.

A police personnel was seen waiting in the stands. It is pretty natural the fan will face legal trouble next for intruding into the stadium.

The video was shared by a fan from the stands and has been running rounds on social media. Take a look at the video here-
