Cricketer Virat Kohli reportedly earned the most money through Instagram of all Indians. Currently, he has 256 million platform users as followers. Due to a change in the composition of the Indian side, the talismanic batter Virat Kohli may not be playing as much cricket, as usual. This year, he is still the highest-paid Indian on the photo and video blogging platform Instagram.
According to a source, Kohli charged a staggering INR 11.45 crore for each sponsored Instagram post he published in the 2023 list. Football legend Cristiano Ronaldo came in first, followed by Lionel Messi, his bitter rival.
Cricketer Virat Kohli:
Ronaldo billed a staggering amount of USD 3.23 million, or around INR 26.75 crore. On the other side, according to Hopper HQ, Messi charged USD 2.56 million (or INR 21.49 crore) for each Instagram post. The only Indian to reach the top 20 list internationally is Virat Kohli. According to reports, he demanded $1.38 million for each Instagram post. For one position, he made 11.45 crore Indian rupees. Currently, he has 256 million platform users as followers.
The co-founder of Hopper HQ, Mike Bandar, was astonished to observe how the incomes of international celebrities had grown on Instagram over time. He also emphasised the importance that sports stars had off the pitch. The fact that the platform’s annual revenue rises every year continues to astound Bandar. “However, the best players who consistently perform well excite me more.”
It’s clear that traditional superstars still have influence over the new “influencer” status thanks to their sparkle and glamour. Ronaldo and Messi clearly personify the power of personal branding and the impact it has on us ‘regular’ people. They not only rule the field but also the digital sphere.
The next Indian on the list is Priyanka Chopra Jonas, a Hollywood and Bollywood actor who is ranked No. 29. According to the article, she demanded USD 532,000 (INR 4.40 crore) for each post.
