News of Kohli's Instagram account being deactivated surfaced late Thursday night. Following this, social media was abuzz with speculation ranging from his retirement to his quitting social media altogether. Fans were even going to his wife Anushka Sharma's Instagram account and demanding answers on her posts.

 

 

Activated on Friday Morning

Since Kohli's Instagram account was deactivated, fans were speculating whether he had done it himself or if it was a technical glitch. On Friday morning, his account became active again, marking the return of the "King." Neither Kohli nor his management team has yet provided any information about why this happened. Interestingly, at the same time Kohli's account was deactivated, his brother Vikas's account was also deactivated. Vikas's account is still showing as deactivated.

 

 

Earns a Lot from Instagram

Kohli has over 274 million followers on Instagram. Instagram is also a source of income for him, which makes it highly unlikely that he would deactivate it himself. It was probably a technical issue. Whatever the reason, Kohli's account is back online, and his fans are overjoyed.
