    Virat’s success is awe inspiring and his dedication and hard work for his craft has made him well deserved for each and every penny that has been listed here.

    His story is motivating and I am very happy that he is reaping his hard work benefits, I am just one year younger than him and dream to have amassed the parallel fortune by being the best in my chosen field.

    Thanks Virat for being what you are for India.
