India captain Virat Kohli has challenged Prime Minister Narendra Modi in an online fitness dare, which the PM accepted and promised to post a video of his workout regimen.

The initiative, called the 'Hum Fit Toh India Fit' challenge, was started by Sports Minister Rajavardhan Singh Rathore, who posted a short video of himself doing push-ups.

He tagged Kohli, shuttler Saina Nehwal and actor Hrithik Roshan in the video, challenging them to post their own exercise videos.

Kohli responded to it yesterday by posting a video of his gym training and tagged his actor wife Anushka Sharma, former captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni and Modi.

"Challenge accepted, Virat! I will be sharing my own #FitnessChallenge video soon," Modi tweeted from his personal handle.
