The viral moment carried additional significance because Kohli has previously spoken about his admiration for Winning Speech. During a conversation at the same event, the batting superstar revealed that the song holds a special place in his heart and is among the tracks he listens to regularly before matches.

Speaking about Aujla’s music, Kohli praised the singer for writing from personal experiences and connecting with listeners through authentic storytelling. The former India captain further explained that the song’s themes resonate deeply with his own life journey.

“You write songs from the heart, and it shows. You also represent your story, which is quite special. The one track I resonate with the most is ‘Winning Speech’. It explains the journey he has been through, and I have felt a bit of similarity in it with my journey as well. I also lost my dad when I was pretty young. So, that song is quite special for me. I have heard it often before going to play matches,” Kohli said.

Kohli’s comments offered fans a rare glimpse into the personal motivations that continue to inspire one of cricket’s greatest modern-day batters. The veteran recently played a pivotal role in IPL 2026 for Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) title-winning campaign and is expected to return to international action during India’s upcoming ODI assignments later this month.
