Parenthood for Kohli, Anushka
Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma gave a surprise to their fans on Thursday as they announced that they will be welcoming their first child together in January 2021. Virat took to his social media account to share the special news with the fans and captioned a happy picture with Anushka, cradling her baby bump. Virat captioned the picture saying, “And then, we were three! Arriving Jan 2021.” Kohli further claimed that he is very ”grateful and blessed” to have a life partner like Anushka.
“I give her full credit for making me see different sides of things altogether and I am so grateful that she is my life partner. Because you learn from each other. I was a very close person, I wasn’t a very practical person before,” Kohli said.
Thanking the people for their birthday wishes, Prime Minister Narendra Modi urged everyone to continue wearing masks and follow social distancing norms in a bid to contain coronavirus, since many had asked him what birthday gift he wanted.
In a late-night tweet on Thursday, the Prime Minister wrote, “Since many have asked, what is it that I want for my birthday, here is what I seek right now: Keep wearing a mask and wear it properly; Follow social distancing. Remember ‘Do Gaj Ki Doori’; Avoid crowded spaces; Improve your immunity. Let us make our planet healthy,” he said.
