\nVirat Kohli and Shah Rukh Khan\u2019s fans clashed on social media after a poll asked who is the \u2018bigger personality and achiever globally\u2019.
\nSocial media is a place where people are free to express their views. However, on occasions, incidents are seen where banter between a few people gets ugly. Such was the instance in two sets of fans on social media. The fans of Indian cricket icon Virat Kohli and Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan went loggerheads with each other on Twitter, arguing over who is better than the other. Comparisons between cricketers or two actors are often seen among fans on social media, but one between a cricketer and an actor was certainly new.
\n\u201cWho is a bigger personality and achiever globally?\u201d a Twitter user asked on March 28 through a poll on the micro-blogging website.
\nThe options were: a) Shah Rukh Khan and b) Virat Kohli. This was the start of a crazy fan war on social media.
\nFans highlighted random facts to draw inferences that would leave the neutrals scratching their heads.
\nThe end result of the poll was Kohli getting 54.4% votes while Shah Rukh got 45.6%. But the end of the poll didn\u2019t mark the end of the debate on social media.

\nRecently, a video of Virat Kohli and his teammate Ravindra Jadeja doing the Pathaan dance had gone viral on social media. The two cricketers were spotted shaking their leg the \u201cJhoome Jo Pathaan\u201d during the Test series against Australia. The clip gained such popularity that even Shah Rukh Khan took to Twitter and reacted.
\nThe King Khan had written: \u201cThey are doing it better than me!! Will have to learn it from Virat And Jadeja!!!\u201d
\nFan wars on social media isn\u2019t a new thing. It wasn\u2019t the first time that such a thing happened. It wouldn\u2019t be the last either. However, it also needs to be understand where a line needs to be drawn in order to keep the debates and discussions healthy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
