Virat Kohli
Anushka Sharma’s romance with cricketer Virat Kohli has received a lot of media attention in India despite her reluctance to discuss it in the open. Anushka Sharma’s boyfriend, Virat Kohli, turns to her life partner. The marriage took place on November 11 in Italy. Sharma gave birth to a girl, Vamika, on January 11, 2021.
Struggle
It might be hard to catch a break in movies. Few people who want to be actors end up being successful in their career. Numerous well-known performers have discussed the challenges they encountered as children.
Among the A-list actresses, Anushka Sharma faced difficulty because she was unconnected to the film industry. However, she has never talked about the difficulties or rejections she had during her early years. The actress opens up in this candid, no-holds-barred discussion, sharing some never-before-seen stories from her career.
Anushka Sharma disclosed in an interview that she had been rejected since she was fifteen. There’s no need to talk about it, so she won’t. However, she was frequently replaced after being dismissed from shows and picked for advertisements. That is all I have experienced as well. All of that, of course, is also an essential part of life in general and the business. But it can also be quite mentally damaging to experience that at the tender age of 15, to be exposed to and evaluated only on the basis of beauty. Your sense of self-worth is damaged. She fixed it. Adi says you are not the most beautiful woman we have ever seen. He wasn’t taking me to Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi because of this. He gave me the assurance that my talent and performance during the tryouts were the only reasons he signed me. It was an amazing sensation. I didn’t feel the least bit bad about it when he called me out as not the most attractive woman. At that moment, at least, he was telling the truth to me.
Controversies
Criticism Over Virat’s Poor Performance
Anushka Sharma was held accountable for Virat Kohli’s poor on-field performance on multiple occasions. No one was ignorant that the couple was dating, despite their best efforts to keep it a secret until their wedding by avoiding any public appearances. In India, cricket is more than simply a game, and sometimes, supporters criticize players or teams excessively for their poor performance. Kohli even decided to express his support for Anushka in 2016. The girlfriend of Anushka Virat Kohli at the time went to Australia to watch India play their own country in the World Cup 2015 semifinals. Anushka looked stunned and defeated as the cameras quickly went to her after Kohli was out for just one run off of thirteen balls. Kohli’s bad batting performance led to her being brutally mocked. Over the years, some have even mockingly suggested that she destroyed Kohli’s game.
As Kohli failed to get going for RCB in the 2020 IPL, Gavaskar stated that he hasn’t had much practise because of the lockdown and that he has only been spotted playing cricket with Anushka. Some outlets mistranslated the comment, sparking a debate that even prompted Anushka to attack Gavaskar.
Team India Photo Controversy
The Bollywood actress may be seen in a photo taken during Team India’s 2018 tour of England, taken at the Indian High Commission in London, only one year after Kohli and Anushka’s nuptials. Being in the photo drew a lot of negative criticism on social media.
