Kohli, who is one of the most followed celebrities on Instagram with 256 million followers, took to his stories to term the reports as "fake news".
He wrote, "Bachpan se jo akhbar padha hai, voh bhi fake news chaapne lage ab (The newspaper that I've been reading since childhood has also started publishing fake news now)."
Earlier this week, Virat Kohli had also refuted reports that he earns a staggering Rs. 11.4 crores for each sponsored post through Instagram.
"While I am grateful and indebted to all that I've received in life, the news that has been making rounds about my social media earnings is not true," Kohli wrote on X (formerly called Twitter).

India is yet to announce their squad for tournaments like Asia Cup and World Cup but players have already started preparing.
