If I cannot have privacy in my own hotel room, then where can I really expect any personal space at all?"I'm not okay with this kind of fanaticism and absolute invasion of privacy.

Please respect people's privacy and not treat them as a commodity for entertainment."Reuters has contacted the hotel for comment.Australian batter David Warner said the video - which shows Kohli's bags, closet, bathroom and clothes - was "ridiculous" and "totally unacceptable".India was beaten by South Africa in their Super 12 match at the Perth Stadium on Sunday.
