Ex-India all-rounder Ravichandran Ashwin used the Ramayana's analogy to describe RCB's Rajat Patidar-Virat Kohli relationship. He said, "Ahead of IPL final, it was Virat talking in the huddle...The partnership between him and Rajat is like, "Big brother...You run this team...I will just be the leader." "Like what Bharat did with Lord Ram's slippers in Ramayana, Rajat did that," he added.
