Arijit Singh has been a hit even among star cricketers

The evening of 27 January was a shock for music lovers across the country. World famous Indian singer Arijit Singh announced his retirement from singing. Arijit, who has lent his voice to dozens of superhit songs in the last decade and a half, has announced that he will no longer do playback singing in any film. While this was no less than a big shock for millions of fans of Arijit, it must have been a surprising news for the veteran cricketers of the country too. After all, Arijit has made even legendary cricketers like Virat Kohli, MS Dhoni crazy about his voice.

As soon as Arijit Singh announced the end of his journey as a playback singer through a statement on social media, fans became sad. Then what, old videos, photos and social media posts related to Arijit also went viral. One such old viral post once again showed how Arijit was famous not only among the common fans but also among the very special celebrities of the country, who have millions of fans all over the world.

One such post was of MS Dhoni and Arijit Singh. A few years ago, Arijit Singh had come to perform during the opening ceremony of the IPL season. During this time, when he was singing the song of the film ‘Brahmastra’ in the stadium, along with thousands of fans present in the stadium, MS Dhoni sitting in the dugout was also dancing to his voice. In the same event, Arijit had also touched Dhoni’s feet and that photo also became viral on social media.

Not only this, while crores of people are crazy about the batting of Virat Kohli, the former captain of Team India and the greatest batsman of this era, Kohli himself is also a big fan of Arijit’s singing. A few years ago, Kohli himself had expressed this on different occasions. Exactly 10 years ago, one of his Twitter posts from January 24 has resurfaced, in which he had declared himself Arijit’s biggest fan.

An old Facebook post of Kohli also resurfaced, in which he had posted his photo with Arijit. Kohli had then praised the star singer, calling it his ‘fanboy moment’.

This respect and liking was not just one-sided, but Arijit, like a common fan, had expressed his liking for Virat in front of everyone. During the performance in the stadium before the World Cup 2023 match, Arijit had openly said ‘I Love You Virat’, the video of which again went viral.
