Mumbai, Oct 18
Star cricketer Virat Kohli will soon be seen in an animated superhero avatar in the small screen series, "Super V".

In the show, Kohli is imagined in a completely different avatar as an animated teen superhero named Super V. The character is inspired by Virat.
The series marks Star India Network's venturing into coming-of-age superhero animation.
"As a kid, I was always fascinated with superheroes and animation is one of the best mediums to reach out to younger audiences. With Star India's extensive reach, I am positive that the show will entertain and engage viewers across age groups," Kohli said.
"'Super V' is an exciting series that shall captivate viewers' interest with its unique story-telling and lovable characters. With the tagline of 'Let's Play', it's also an attempt to inspire kids to be more active," he added.
Every episode of the 13-part series will come with a promise of humour, action and drama. The weekly show will narrate story of how a teenager at the cusp of adulthood finds his identity between aspirations, parental expectations and peer pressures.
Kohli will conclude every episode with a message to his young fans summarising the key takeaway from the story.
