Virat Kohli has expressed his heartfelt gratitude to the Mumbai Police for their exceptional efforts during India’s T20 World Cup victory parade on July 4. The Indian team, after celebrating with Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Delhi, took to the streets of Mumbai to mark their World Cup triumph with a grand parade and felicitation ceremony.
The parade stretched from Nariman Point to Wankhede Stadium along Marine Drive, where an enormous crowd of fans had gathered to catch a glimpse of the T20 World Champions. The massive turnout led to Marine Drive being completely congested, prompting the Mumbai Police to issue a traffic advisory urging residents to avoid the area.
In a tweet on X (formerly Twitter), Kohli wrote, “Deep respect and heartfelt thanks to all the officers and staff of @MumbaiPolice & @CPMumbaiPolice for doing a phenomenal job during Team India’s Victory Parade. Your dedication and service is highly appreciated. Jai Hind!”
Kohli’s message of thanks came after a day filled with celebration and joy. During the parade, Kohli was seen in high spirits, energetically participating in the festivities and clicking pictures with fans. He was handed the T20 World Cup trophy by Hardik Pandya, with whom he shared a moment of triumph.
At the Wankhede Stadium, Kohli reminisced about the emotional moments from the World Cup final. “One of the most cherished memories was hugging Rohit Sharma on the stairs to the dressing room after our win. It’s a moment I will treasure forever,” Kohli said.
The Mumbai Police’s effective management ensured the parade proceeded smoothly despite the overwhelming crowds, reflecting their dedication and hard work in making the event a success.
