Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli have been served a legal notice by Arrhan Singh. He was the target of ridicule and threats on social media after Sharma uploaded a video in which she schooled him for throwing garbage on the road.
“Hi. My legal advisors have sent a notice to Mr Virat Kohli and Mrs Anushka Sharma Kohli. As the ball is in their court, no comments now. As in all fairness I should await their response,” Arhan said.

The video, which had over a million views, received mixed reactions. While a few people applauded the actress for schooling the boy, a few others called it a publicity stunt.
Congress party leader Sanjay Jha took to Twitter and questioned Virat and Anushka about their opinion on the issue.
“Celebrities don’t need to promote themselves when supposedly attempting a good thing. How much publicity do you want, guys?” Jha tweeted.
