The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 has witnessed some thrilling matches so far, but none as special as the one between Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) and Chennai Super Kings (CSK) at the M.A. Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. RCB defeated CSK by 50 runs, a feat that hadn’t been achieved in 17 years, and the celebrations that followed were nothing short of euphoric.
The RCB players, including former captain Virat Kohli, took to the dressing room to celebrate their historic win, and what transpired next was a sight to behold. Kohli, who scored 31 runs off 30 balls in the match, couldn’t contain his excitement and danced inside the dressing room to the tune of rapper-singer Sooraj Cherukat’s, aka ‘Hanumankind’, ‘Run It Up’ song.
The video of Kohli’s impromptu dance party has gone viral on social media, with fans and cricket enthusiasts alike rejoicing in the joy and excitement of the RCB players. It’s a testament to the strong bond between the team members and their ability to let loose and have fun, even in the midst of a high-pressure tournament like the IPL.
The win was a significant one for RCB, who had been struggling to find their footing in the tournament. With this victory, they have sent out a strong message to their opponents that they are a force to be reckoned with. For Kohli, who has had a decent IPL season so far, this win must have brought a sense of relief and satisfaction.
The CSK team, on the other hand, will be disappointed with the loss, especially after a promising start to the tournament. They will look to regroup and come back stronger in their next matches.
The ‘Run It Up’ song, which has become a viral sensation, is a high-energy track that is perfect for getting the adrenaline pumping. It’s no surprise that the RCB players chose this song to celebrate their win, and Kohli’s dance moves only added to the fun.
In an interview with the Hindustan Times, Kohli said, “We’ve been working really hard as a team, and it’s great to see that our efforts are paying off. The dressing room is always a special place, but tonight it was even more special. We had a lot of fun, and that’s what makes this win so special.”
The RCB team’s dressing room celebrations are a testament to the strong camaraderie and bonding that exists within the team. It’s a culture that has been fostered by the team’s captain, Faf du Plessis, and his leadership has been instrumental in the team’s success so far.
As the IPL 2025 continues, fans can expect more thrilling matches and exciting moments like this one. For RCB, this win will be a huge confidence booster, and they will look to build on this momentum in their upcoming matches.
For Kohli, this win must have been a welcome relief, and his impromptu dance party was a fitting way to celebrate this special victory. As he said in the interview, “We’ve been working really hard, and it’s great to see that our efforts are paying off. The dressing room is always a special place, but tonight it was even more special.”
