Yuzvendra Chahal’s one-word comment — “Algorithm” — has added a humorous twist to the commotion around Virat Kohliis the last Instagram activity, turning it into an absolute social media moment.Chahal’s reaction immediately drew attention online, with many seeing it as a playful callback to Kohli’s earlier explanation of an “algorithm error” in a similar incident in 2025. However, in a twist, Kohli seems to have since disliked the post in question, with Chahal’s comment no longer seen there.
‘I was happy… but then I felt bad for him’
The latest chatter started after Kohli liked a post by LizLaz, a German-South African influencer and ardent supporter of Royal Challengers Bengaluru, in January.Opening up about the unexpected attention, LizLaz said her reaction was mixed.“No, I actually felt a bit sorry! I was really happy that they liked it, but then he didn’t like it, I felt bad for him because I don’t know how it became such a big story. How people noticed, how he made the news was probably not his intention behind it, but still I appreciate and appreciate his support,” he told Hindustan Times.He didn’t even know about it at first and only found out after it started making headlines, after which he received tons of messages.
Sudden fame, new opportunities
The viral moment has seen an increase in the number of followers and professional inquiries. LizLaz has described the experience as surreal and said she is taking time to process the focus, while also expressing interest in exploring opportunities in India.
