While the authenticity of the claim has not been officially confirmed by Kohli’s team or the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), the video has surfaced at a time when the team’s off-field activities are under heightened scrutiny following a rare home series defeat. Recent reports during the Indore stay suggested that the BCCI had deployed specialized chefs to monitor players' nutritional intake. Shubman Gill Brings Personal Water Purifier Worth INR 3 Lakh Amid Indore Contaminated Water Crisis Which Killed Over 20 Residents.

In the third and final ODI, despite Kohli's 124 off 108 balls, India fell 41 runs short in their pursuit of New Zealand’s 337. The defeat at the Holkar Stadium marked the first time the Black Caps have ever won an ODI series on Indian soil, clinching the three-match series 2-1.
