Mr Nags and Virat Kohli in a Frame
A major reason behind those endless smiles is Mr. Nags, played by Danish Sait, who stars in the Royal Challengers Bengaluru Insider Show. His hilarious gimmicks, witty humour, and unmatched energy have made him a beloved figure among RCB fans. Whether roasting the players or pulling off funny pranks, Mr. Nags has created countless unforgettable moments. Let us take a look at some of the best Mr. Nags memories with the RCB team.
In the latest episode of the RCB Insider Show, fans witnessed one of the funniest moments between Virat Kohli and Mr. Nags, also known as Danish Sait. What started as a light-hearted attempt to talk about peace and meditation turned into a hilarious session where both Kohli and Mr. Nags unintentionally trolled Pakistan’s star batter, Babar Azam. The moment began with Mr. Nags trying to understand Virat Kohli’s “meditative state of mind”. Kohli was seen pretending to meditate when Mr. Nags suddenly hugged him from behind.
Not liking the sudden interruption, Kohli jokingly pushed him away and said, “Chhii, go sit over there”. Mr. Nags reminded Kohli that he had once spoken about always showing love to close ones. Virat, quick on his feet, responded with, “Extend love, but only after having a bath. You come like that, my whole peace is spoiled.” As Kohli walked away, Mr. Nags shouted, “Maintain peace!”. To which Virat replied with the now-viral comment, “Ghante ka peace”, creating a burst of laughter among the fans.
Interestingly, the phrase “Ghante ka king” had become famous earlier when some Pakistani YouTubers used it to make fun of Babar Azam’s struggles with form. This led many fans to believe that Kohli had taken a subtle jab at Babar through his comment. The segment was supposed to be a “peace treaty” between Mr. Nags and Virat Kohli, where both were trying to show how to stay mentally strong. However, the fun-filled atmosphere turned it into a hilarious banter session.
In a recent episode of the RCB Insider Show, a funny interaction took place between Mr. Nags and Virat Kohli that cleverly touched on a serious topic. Known for his humour, Mr. Nags brought up the name “Sunil,” teasing Kohli by asking if he was friends with a common man, not a famous commentator. Virat looked confused at first, but the joke was revealed when Mr. Nags said he was talking about Sunil Chhetri, not Sunil Gavaskar. The moment quickly became lighter as Kohli laughed and spoke fondly about his close friendship with Chhetri, who recently announced his retirement from international football.
This cheeky setup was important because, in recent times, Sunil Gavaskar has regularly criticized Kohli, especially regarding his strike rate in T20 cricket and the way he celebrates on the field. Gavaskar had pointed out that maintaining a low strike rate while playing long innings should not be celebrated and even urged broadcasters not to highlight certain responses from players like Kohli. Such comments have led to many debates among cricket fans.
Instead of addressing this criticism directly, Mr. Nags smartly turned the situation into a joke, using his signature humour to avoid any serious talk. His play on the name “Sunil” gave Kohli a reason to smile and shift the conversation towards a positive and emotional topic — his friendship with Chhetri. This moment showed how humour can defuse a tense topic, especially when criticism and public scrutiny are constantly around big players like Kohli. Mr. Nags managed to lighten the mood, keeping the RCB Insider Show fun and positive.
In a recent video shared by Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB), influencer Danish Sait, famously known as Mr. Nags, created another hilarious moment by taking a lighthearted jab at Mumbai Indians. The funny scene unfolded during an interaction with Rajat Patidar, who was newly appointed as RCB’s captain after the release of Faf du Plessis ahead of the IPL 2025 auction. Patidar had already received good luck wishes from former captains Virat Kohli and Faf, ensuring a smooth leadership handover.
During the chat, Mr. Nags cheekily asked Patidar whether he thought other franchises should have taken a similar approach while announcing their new captains. It was a clear dig at Mumbai Indians, who had faced severe backlash in IPL 2024 after naming Hardik Pandya as captain, replacing Rohit Sharma. That decision had not gone down well with MI fans, resulting in a season full of boos and criticism directed at Pandya. Patidar, however, responded innocently, saying he was unaware of what had happened elsewhere.
Mr. Nags, spotting the perfect opportunity, twisted Patidar’s words playfully, suggesting, “See, basically he said ‘MI nahi janta MI”, a clever wordplay mimicking “main nahi janta” (I don’t know) while taking a subtle shot at Mumbai Indians. This witty moment quickly went viral, with fans enjoying the humour and cleverness displayed by Mr. Nags. It also served as a light-hearted reminder of the chaos that had surrounded Mumbai Indians’ captaincy switch in the previous season.
In a fun and light-hearted moment that won the hearts of fans, RCB Women’s team captain Smriti Mandhana shared a hilarious exchange with the popular RCB mascot, Mr. Nags, during a promotional show. As part of a playful segment, Smriti was asked to draw a portrait of none other than Virat Kohli, the legendary RCB men’s team player. What followed was a series of comical moments that left everyone laughing.
Despite her best efforts, Smriti’s drawing skills turned out to be delightfully amateur. She started by sketching a crown, thinking it would be enough to hint at Virat’s stature. However, Mr. Nags, with his signature mischief, encouraged her to draw a full figure. Smriti humorously attempted a basic figure, missing proper arms and legs, and only after adding a beard did Mr. Nags correctly guess it was Kohli. Both burst into laughter seeing the final result, which looked nothing like the real Virat Kohli.
The clip quickly gained traction online, and fans absolutely loved the spontaneity and humour shared between Smriti and Mr. Nags. The moment was not just about the funny drawing but also showed the lighter side of two beloved RCB personalities having a blast together. This incident, led by Mr. Nags’ usual witty antics and Smriti’s sporting spirit, allowed fans to enjoy a different, more relaxed vibe compared to the intense on-field action.
In a fun and entertaining podcast session, Ellyse Perry, the Australian cricket star and Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) all-rounder, had a memorable moment with host Mr. Nags, aka Danish Sait, during the Women’s Premier League (WPL) 2025. The episode, which aired on February 11, 2025, featured a delightful musical interlude, where Perry made her singing debut by performing a Kannada song. The spontaneous duet came about when Mr. Nags playfully urged Perry to join him in singing a famous track from the 1987 film Premaloka.
Initially a bit hesitant, Perry soon embraced the challenge and effortlessly delivered the Kannada lyrics, showing her humour and versatility beyond the cricket field. As Mr. Nags sang the male part with enthusiasm, Perry stepped in with her own rendition, perfectly blending into the fun atmosphere. This moment not only showcased Perry’s ease in stepping out of her comfort zone but also added a humorous touch to her personality, making it clear that she’s much more than just a cricketing talent.
This playful performance was a huge hit with fans, as Perry’s willingness to entertain through something as unexpected as singing a regional song endeared her even more to her followers. Her cheerful participation in the podcast displayed how much she enjoys connecting with fans in unique ways. For the fans, this was an amazing moment between both of them.
