In the clip, the man initially claims to have distributed sweets worth lakhs to celebrate the long-awaited triumph of RCB and his idol, Virat Kohli. The team lifted the IPL trophy this year after 17 years of heartbreak and hope.

With a mix of pride and emotion, he shares that he has now become a father after a long wait. While he looked aged, the reporter asked if it was the first time he had become a parent. The answer? Yes.

His explanation, "Hum kasam khaaye the ki jis din Virat Kohli IPL mein trophy layega, ussi din hum baap banenge. Aur aaj vo Virat Kohli cup la raha hai. Hum baap banenge. Bete ka naam Virat Kohli rakhenge (I had vowed that the day Virat Kohli brings home the IPL trophy, that will be the day I will become a father. And today, Virat Kohli has brought the cup. I'll become a parent—and we’ll name our son Virat Kohli)."

The quirky reel has quickly gone viral, racking up thousands of views, shares, and comments.
