England cricketer Liam Livingstone, who played alongside Virat Kohli at Royal Challengers Bengaluru in 2025, described Kohli as fiercely competitive on the field but calm and family-oriented off it. Livingstone noted Kohli's discomfort with the intense public attention he receives in India, suggesting he prefers a quieter life, primarily residing in London with his family since early 2024. Kohli continues to engage with cricket and commitments in India while embracing a more private lifestyle.
