This is the first time ever somebody has kicked out King Khan from first position in the list of India’s Most Valuable Celebrity Brands. This time, newly-wed Virat Kohli has topped the list which clearly means that people want to see him endorsing brands.
Virat Kohli tops the list with a brand value of $144 million, followed by Shah Rukh Khan at $106 million, whereas Deepika Padukone ($93 million), Akshay Kumar ($47 million) and Ranveer Singh ($42 million).
Not just this, Virat Kohli was ranked above the Argentinean and Barcelona football legend Lionel Messi as one of the most-valuable brands among sports athletes by Forbes.
Seems like Anushka Sharma has been a lucky charm for Virat!
Also, the newly-wed couple is currently in Delhi organizing their mega reception at the Taj Hotel which will take place tonight. Virat’s former cricketer teammates, from his club cricket and U-17 days are also invited to the reception tonight.
Their reception outfit has been designed by Sabyasachi, who also designed their Sangeet, Mehendi and wedding attires. Soon after their reception, the couple will fly to Mumbai to throw another lavish event for their Mumbai Bollywood friends.
