Kohli's charitable contribution will significantly bolster the NGO's efforts to raise funds aimed at aiding families grappling with food shortages. Established in 2011, Go Dharmic is committed to uniting individuals with a shared desire to make a positive impact on society. Their overarching mission involves mobilizing one million volunteers and laying the foundation for transformative social campaigns in at least 50 cities by 2026. The organization's visionary founder, Hanuman Dass, is dedicated to advancing the cause of altruism.

When it comes to cricket, Kohli has reaffirmed his status as the King of chases, as the Men in Blue won both of their games so far in the ICC Men's ODI World Cup 2023. He's gearing up for a high-stakes clash against Pakistan at the iconic Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on October 14. With an expected colossal crowd of over 130,000 spectators for this epic showdown, Pakistan is sure to face tremendous pressure.

Kohli scored consecutive half-centuries against Australia and Afghanistan in the World Cup 2023. What's more, the 34-year-old batting sensation played a mesmerizing century against Pakistan during the Asia Cup 2023 Super 4 match in Colombo, leading India to a commanding victory with an impressive margin of 228 runs.

Pakistan has also demonstrated their mettle with victories in their first two matches of the tournament, keeping India fully aware of their formidable capabilities.
