Two of the biggest superstars of nation-Shah Rukh Khan and Virat Kohli are trending on social media, courtesy of, their fans. While the two share admiration for each other, their fans are fighting on Twitter ahead of IPL. Yes, you read that right! Netizens are divided with fans of SRK and Virat hurling abuses at each other.
