The RCB-shared film opens with an interview with former captain Virat Kohli, who talks about his 2009 first meeting with Karthik in 2009.
.
“The first time I met DK, I remember we were playing in South Africa, if I am not mistaken, in the Champions Trophy 2009. It was the first time I shared the change room with Dinesh, and I found him to be a very amusing, I would say hyper-active, confused person. Most of the time, he was moving all over the place, never stopping. That was my first impression of Dinesh,” Kohli said in the video.
“Outstanding talent, brilliant batter to watch, and my first impression and present-day impression are not far apart. Just that he has become wiser and calmed down a lot,” he added.

“Off the field, I have had some really nice and interesting conversations with him. He is a wise man and has great knowledge about a lot of things, not just cricket. I have thoroughly enjoyed my conversations with him. Even in that phase in 2022, when I did not have a great IPL season. I was really struggling for confidence. He sat me down a couple of times and gave me a very honest explanation of how he is seeing things, and maybe I am not able to see them myself,” Kohli said.
“So, I just like his honesty and courage to go and speak to anyone about things that he dearly feels about. And that, I think, is the most special thing for me when it comes to Dinesh, and that’s one thing I have always cherished about him. That’s why we get along really, really well,” Kohli added.

Along with praising Karthik’s integrity and bravery, Virat also recounted a fascinating story from 2022 in which the former didn’t have the finest IPL season. The batter who was keeping wicket took him aside and offered a frank assessment of what may be wrong.
Subsequently, Deepika Pallikal, Karthik’s wife, revealed some of the cricketer’s most memorable memories in the video. But she also acknowledged that it would be difficult for him to step away from the game. Deepika sobbed on television as she recapped her experiences.

“I am standing at a point where when I look back, I only see memories and a new life when I look forward. It was always my dream to play for India, and I got to live it. I am thankful to a lot of people for that. First of all, my family, my childhood coaches and then my team that I played with for so many years. I got a new family, fame and love. But it is said that to move forward, you need to flip the pages,” Dhawan said in a post on ‘X’.
“I am announcing my retirement from international and domestic cricket. As I bid farewell to my cricketing journey, I have peace in my heart. I played a lot for my country. I only say this to myself, that you don’t need to be upset about not playing for your country again, but be happy that you had the opportunity to do so,” he concluded.
