Kohli wrote and spoke in support of the campaign for a 'yes' vote in the 2014 referendum on Scottish independence, appearing at the rallies for Scottish independence on 22 September 2012 and on 21 September 2013 in Edinburgh.[27]

Kohli returned to Scotland prior to the referendum in order to take a prominent role in the Yes campaign but, when media opportunities were not forthcoming, he still lives in Glasgow. Kohli joined the Scottish National Party in November 2014 after the independence referendum.
