Rahul Vaidya and Virat Kohli Settle the Score: A Social Media Reconciliation

By Sumitra Patel Last updated: May 17, 2025 3 Min Read

In a surprise but welcome turn of events, Indian singer Rahul Vaidya recently posted that Indian cricket legend Virat Kohli has unblocked him on Instagram, bringing an end to a long-standing cyber misunderstanding between the two. This seemingly innocuous act has attracted notice from fans in both the entertainment and cricketing franchises, as it exemplifies how public figures can move on from former animosities with dignity and respect.

Rahul Vaidya, more famous for his singing voice and participation as a finalist in the initial season of Indian Idol, had previously shown puzzlement and modest annoyance at being blocked by Kohli on social media. In Vaidya’s recollection, he never quite got to figure out what made Kohli block him initially. Although the details of the original fallout are unclear, it is generally accepted that the singer had otherwise posted or commented on something that didn’t agree with Kohli or his zealous fanbase.

In the age of social media, when celebrities are usually questioned over each like, comment, or follow, such an incident is not unusual. Nevertheless, what makes this matter exceptional is how it has been brought to a conclusion—quietly, respectfully, and with dignity.

Speaking about the development, Vaidya didn’t hold back his admiration for the cricketing icon. He called Kohli “one of the best batsmen cricket has ever seen” and described him as “India’s pride.” The sincerity in Vaidya’s words reflected not just relief but a genuine respect for Kohli’s accomplishments and his role in uplifting Indian cricket on the global stage.

“Aap India ka garv ho,” Vaidya said, which translates to “You are the pride of India.” This warm greeting was a fitting one, as it warmed fans’ and followers’ hearts, many of whom flocked to social media to thank Vaidya for being so mature and Kohli for seemingly being willing to let bygones be bygones.

The reunion, although virtual, teaches a larger lesson in public conversation and human interaction—particularly when acted out before the public. Social media can unite, but it can also empower distance, particularly when there is misunderstanding. Here, an easy action—unblocking—has restored a connection that previously had been broken without known reason.

Rahul Vaidya’s response also suggests personal evolution. Rather than nurse grudges, he went ahead to publicly celebrate Kohli’s excellence and utilize the moment to declare admiration. By doing so, Vaidya has created a precedent on how differences—no matter how insignificant or monumental—can be addressed via kindness and dialogue instead of ongoing enmity.
