The Indian skipper Virat Kohli recently interacted with his fans on Instagram through ‘Ask me Anything’ feature. Kohli is popular not only for his batting prowess but also for his extreme fitness.
One of the fans had questioned him about his diet and the Indian batting ace had revealed that he has a lot of vegetables, some eggs, 2 cups of coffee, dal, quinoa, spinach, and dosas in his diet. But, he did not know that would make him a part of a controversy.

Consumption of eggs despite being vegetarian is a debatable topic but it is the choice of a person what he will consume.
