Arijit also asked Anushka Sharma for a photo while enjoying the match in the stands.

Bollywood singer Arijit Singh had set the stage on fire at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad ahead of the India v Pakistan clash in the ICC World Cup 2023 tournament on October 14. He along with Shankar Mahadevan, Sunidhi Chauhan, and Sukhwinder Singh were part of the musical event organized by BCCI.

The Indian team was practicing as Arijit Singh was in his performance and once he saw former India captain Virat Kohli pass by, Arijit couldn’t help himself and shouted “I Love You Virat”, mid-song. Virat Kohli acknowledged Arijit Singh and waved at him.

Earlier he had touched the steps with his hands for respect before going for his performance and cheered for India. He also thanked the people present there for their love and gratitude.
