Kohli distances himself amid ₹2 crore dues and compliance issues.
Virat Kohli has officially distanced himself from the One8 Commune restaurant in Bengaluru, famously known as 'his restaurant' among fans. The establishment has shut down operations following court directives due to over ₹2 crore in unpaid dues and multiple compliance violations, including serious fire safety issues.
Managed by Trio Hills Hospitality, the restaurant faced mounting problems, including six months of unpaid rent and maintenance charges. The local civil court stepped in, ordering the closure until all debts are cleared. With Kohli's brand now removed from the name, the establishment's reputation and footfall have plummeted.
Kohli reportedly warned the owners about these issues, pushing them to remove his branding entirely. Despite attempts to secure a stay order against the closure, the restaurant remains shut, highlighting the significant impact of these legal troubles on its future.
As of now, there’s been no word from Kohli himself about this unraveling situation, leaving fans and patrons in the dark. What’s next for the One8 brand?
