Known for being a fitness freak, Virat Kohli is associated with a number of fitness clubs and gyms. In 2015, he opened his own chain of gyms under the name of Chisel. The 27-year old recently joined hands with Stepathlon Lifestyle to start a venture called Stepathlon Kids, a startup that intends to tackle the fitness problems of kids.

Last year, Kohli became the investor and brand ambassador of Sports Convo, a tech-startup based in London. He also received support from Welsh footballer Gareth Bale for the venture last year.

He has also built an e-commerce startup brand, Wrogn, which he endorses on various social media sites. Kohli also does fan engagements via Fanbox, his private fan club.
