KL Rahul admits he was ‘scarred’ after Koffee With Karan’s episode ft Hardik Pandya: ‘I was never suspended…’

As a dedicated follower who has witnessed the highs and lows of KL Rahul’s career, it’s heartening to see him open up about his personal struggles. The Koffee with Karan controversy was a watershed moment for him, one that left an indelible mark on his psyche. It’s not every day you see a man of such stoic demeanor on the field break down and admit that he was scarred by an interview.


As a respected lifestyle guide, I’m often asked about high-profile figures navigating public scrutiny. Take the case of KL Rahul, a prominent Indian cricketer whose career has been marked by exceptional performances. However, it was his appearance on “Koffee With Karan” that brought him into the limelight for an unexpected reason.

During an honest conversation with Nikhil Kamath on his podcast, KL Rahul shared how the controversy surrounding the Koffee with Karan episode affected him personally and dented his self-worth. In reminiscing about a difficult period, Rahul explained, “The experience of that interview was like stepping into a whole new realm. It transformed me entirely. I used to be quite reserved as a child, then playing for India boosted my confidence significantly. However, following that interview, I find myself less outgoing than before because it left a deep mark on me.”

KL Rahul also discussed his recent suspension from the Indian cricket team and mentioned that he had never experienced punishment in school, nor had he encountered such severe consequences before, which left him unsure about how to manage it. In simpler terms, the cricketer said, “I used to get into trouble at school sometimes, but nothing serious enough to expel me or for my parents to be called.”

For those unfamiliar, cricket players KL Rahul and Hardik Pandya appeared on renowned talk show “Koffee with Karan” in 2019. During discussions about their private lives, the pair spoke candidly and revealed surprising details that ignited a heated debate across India.

In a conversation, Hardik discussed with KJo telling his parents about losing his virginity and commenting on women at a party, receiving the response ‘Wah, proud of you beta’. When questioned about dating the same woman, Rahul replied that it depends on the women, while Pandya concluded that such decisions are based on talent. Furthermore, Pandya made a remark saying “whoever gets her, takes her.” In addition to this, Hardik made some negative comments, referencing his ethnicity.
