Amidst the IPL frenzy, Virat Kohli's sweet FaceTime call with Anushka Sharma and their kids after the match melted hearts and reminded fans why they adore this couple so much.
As the IPL kicked off, stadiums overflowed with fervent fans while living rooms buzzed with excitement in front of glowing screens. Amidst the hustle and bustle of the Indian Premier League 2024 season, Virat Kohli managed to squeeze in some precious family time. Leading his team, the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB), to a thrilling victory over Preity Zinta's Punjab Kings (PBKS) by four wickets on March 25, Virat's post-match FaceTime with Anushka and his kids captured hearts worldwide. This heartwarming moment, reminiscent of past instances where Virushka set relationship goals, left cricket fans everywhere feeling warm and fuzzy. Let's take a trip down memory lane and relive other moments where Virat and Anushka Sharma showcased their magical connection.
Virat and Anushka exchanged vows in 2017, but their blossoming romance was no secret to fans long before that. When discussing iconic couple moments, one simply cannot overlook the flying kiss Virat bestowed upon Anushka. One of the most memorable instances of Bollywood colliding with Indian cricket occurred in 2014, when Virat sent a flying kiss towards Anushka after reaching a milestone in a match against Sri Lanka. While the world may have suspected their relationship, this heartfelt gesture left no room for doubt, making their bond crystal clear for all to see!
The first time Virushka publicly appeared as a couple was at Yuvraj Singh and Hazel Keech's wedding in Goa. Virat is not just a phenomenal cricketer; he's also a talented dancer. If you've ever caught a glimpse of him in party videos, you'd know that his moves can captivate anyone. Virushka stole the show by dancing together to the upbeat Punjabi track 'Gur Naal Ishq Mitha' in the wedding. They seemed completely immersed in their own world, unaware of anyone else around them. Dressed elegantly in black, the couple looked absolutely stunning. They effortlessly synchronized their steps, perfectly complementing each other's moves on the dance floor.
In March 2016, when Virat Kohli faced criticism for his poor performance in T20 cricket, fingers were unfairly pointed at Anushka Sharma. Fans attributed Virat's supposed ‘distraction’ from the game to Anushka. However, Virat swiftly came to her defense, taking to Twitter to express his dismay: "Shame on people for trolling @AnushkaSharma non-stop. Have some compassion. She has always only given me positivity." This bold stand not only showcased Virat's unwavering support for Anushka but also demonstrated his refusal to let baseless accusations tarnish her reputation. His tweet resonated deeply, earning recognition as the golden tweet of 2016, as it sparked a conversation about standing up for the women we love.
Virat's affection for Anushka is evident both on and off the field. When he scored his maiden century at a test match in England, he didn't hesitate to express his love for Anushka by kissing his wedding ring. What a romantic gesture! As the camera panned to the stands, it captured Anushka, his proud wife, watching with a blush of admiration. Their love story continues to charm fans both on and off the cricket pitch.
In July 2015, this adoring couple graced the Vogue Beauty Awards hand in hand. Lost in their own world, they seemed oblivious to the glitz and glamour surrounding them, with eyes only for each other. It was a special evening as Anushka was bestowed with the ‘Beauty of the Year’ award. Amidst the celebration, Anushka said that Virat jokingly referred to her as a ‘nimbu,’ due to the pastel yellow shade of her dress. This light-hearted banter exemplifies the vivacity and strength of their unbreakable bond.
