Virat has often spoken about how important his father was in shaping his life and career. His father made sure Virat went to practice every day, no matter how tough things were. He believed in discipline, hard work, and honesty, and taught Virat never to look for shortcuts or special favors. These values stayed with Virat and later became the foundation of his success on the cricket field.
Amazing concept of the ad 💯

Sadly, Virat lost his father at a young age, but the lessons he learned during those early years stayed with him forever. The scooter image represents more than just travel to practice—it symbolizes sacrifice, dedication, and unconditional support from a parent who believed in his child’s dream.
