Virat Kohli’s appeal for noise-free Diwali backfires, trolled heavily

Team India cricket captain Virat Kohli had posted a 13-second video on his Twitter account making an appeal for a noise-free Deepawali. 

But his video message, which does not have any dialogue, has not been taken nicely by his followers on the microblogging site. 

The video featuring Virat reads “This Diwali spread light not noise” with the noise of firecrackers in the background and Virat is looking visibly distressed. 

This Diwali, let's change things up. 😇🙏 #HappyDiwali #FestivalOfLights #StayWrogn pic.twitter.com/8YoYsXY4rF

He even puts his fingers in his ears to shut out the noise.      

Following this appeal, the Twitterati reacted in their own unique style.

जब तुम्हारे IPL में पटाखे फूटते हैं, वो क्या बिना आवाज वाले होते है,
क्यों, कितने पैसे मिले हैं, तुम्हे इस "प्रचार" के लिए??😠
