Former India captain Virat Kohli and Bollywood star Anushka Sharma were seen enjoying a casual walk through the streets of London on Sunday. The couple, dressed simply, blended into the crowd and were spotted laughing and chatting with a local passerby. The lighthearted moment, far removed from the constant spotlight in India, quickly went viral on social media.
Fans reacted emotionally, with many describing the scene as “peace over fame.” Some even said cricket had temporarily lost its bond, highlighting the void Kohli’s absence from the game has created.
Couple’s life in London
Kohli and Anushka shifted to London after the birth of their second child, Akaay, in February 2024. The move was reportedly to give their children a more normal upbringing away from the public glare. Earlier, Dr. Sriram Nene, husband of actress Madhuri Dixit, revealed that Anushka once spoke to him about wanting to raise her kids in a private and calm environment abroad.
Dr. Nene praised the couple, calling them grounded and genuine people who value simplicity despite their immense fame.
Kohli’s cricket future
Kohli retired from Test cricket in May 2025 and now plays only ODIs. His future in the 50-over format has been the subject of speculation, with some reports suggesting the upcoming Australia tour in October could be his last. However, the 36-year-old hinted otherwise by liking an Instagram post that suggested he is preparing for the series.
The star batter last played for India in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, where he played a key role in India’s title win. He then enjoyed a successful IPL season with Royal Challengers Bengaluru, keeping fans hopeful for more appearances on the international stage.
