True love is rare in today’s unpredictable world. While we often witness celebrity relationships forming and falling apart, some couples restore our faith in genuine love. Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma are one such pair. Whether falling in love, taking time apart, or reuniting for life, they have consistently shown strength and sincerity in their relationship.

Virat and Anushka first met during the shoot of a television commercial. Although sparks didn’t fly immediately, the two stayed in touch after the shoot.

Soon after, they began making public appearances together. Virat drew major attention in 2014 when he headed straight to Anushka’s home in Mumbai after returning from India’s South Africa cricket tour.

Unlike many, Virat and Anushka were candid about their relationship. In 2014, Anushka reportedly said they were “just two normal people in a relationship” and had “nothing to hide.”

Their first public appearance came in November 2014, when they were seen cheering at an Indian Super League football match in Pune.

Despite their hectic schedules, Anushka and Virat made it a point to visit each other while working. Whether it was Anushka flying across continents for Virat’s matches or Virat dropping by on her film sets, they always prioritized celebrating key moments together.

Soon after dating, the couple was frequently spotted together, often making headlines with their public displays of affection. One iconic moment was Virat’s “flying kiss” to Anushka from the cricket field—proving love was, indeed, in the air.

In December 2017, the couple surprised everyone by tying the knot in a dreamy, intimate ceremony at Borgo Finocchieto, a medieval villa in Tuscany, Italy. They flew out with close family and friends, away from media glare.

To this day, images of Anushka in her soft pink embellished lehenga and Virat as the dashing groom continue to enchant fans. The couple later hosted grand receptions in Delhi and Mumbai.

Anushka and Virat chose to keep their wedding under wraps by using pseudonyms during the planning. Anushka told Vogue India, “We wanted it to be about us.” Virat shared with Pinkvilla that Anushka handled most of the preparations due to his packed cricket schedule.

Since then, they have openly expressed their love—Anushka praising Virat’s values and courage, and Virat calling her “the most honest, loving, brave woman.” Their bond continues to inspire millions.

On January 11, 2021, Anushka and Virat welcomed their daughter, Vamika. “We are thrilled to announce the arrival of our baby girl,” Virat wrote on Instagram. The couple also requested privacy for their family.

Anushka later called Virat a “hands-on father,” adding that motherhood had made her “more present and patient.” They have chosen to keep their parenting journey away from the spotlight, prioritizing Vamika’s well-being.

On February 15, 2024, the couple welcomed their second child, a son named Akaay. “With abundant happiness and hearts full of love, we welcomed our baby boy Akaay—Vamika’s little brother—into this world!” they shared on Instagram.

They once again asked for privacy and thanked fans for their support. The name ‘Akaay,’ meaning “light of the shining moon,” reflects their spiritual sensibilities. The announcement was met with an outpouring of love from fans and celebrities alike.
