The interaction between two of India’s biggest faces in sport and music became one of the most talked-about highlights of the evening. The moment gained even more significance because of Kohli’s personal connection with the song, something he later explained during a conversation at the event.
Winning Speech Holds A Special Place For Kohli
Before joining Aujla on stage, Kohli opened up about the song that has become a regular part of his pre-match routine.
“You write songs from the heart, and it shows. You also represent your story, which is quite special. The one track I resonate with the most is ‘Winning Speech’,” he said during the event, where Karan Aujla was also present.
The former India captain then revealed why the song connects with him on a deeper level.
“It explains the journey he has been through, and I have felt a bit of similarity in it with my journey as well. I also lost my dad when I was pretty young. So, that song is quite special for me. I have heard it often before going to play matches.”

Kohli’s emotional remark offered a rare glimpse into the personal experiences that shape his mindset before stepping onto the field.
The veteran batsman has been away from international action recently after suffering a hamstring injury during the IPL 2026 final. Despite the setback, he played a decisive role in RCB’s title-winning campaign with a match-winning innings against Shubman Gill’s Gujarat Titans.
That said, Kohli has been named in India’s squad for the upcoming ODI series against England and is expected to return to action next month.
