Virat Kohli Clarifies Instagram Like on Avneet Kaur’s Post
The controversy began when eagle-eyed fans noticed Virat’s verified Instagram handle had liked a post from a fan page dedicated to actress Avneet Kaur. The post quickly gained traction, with many speculating about the intention behind the like.
To address the rumors, Virat posted a statement on his Instagram Stories. He clarified that while organizing his feed, an unintended like may have occurred due to the algorithm. “There was absolutely no intent behind it,” he wrote, urging people not to draw baseless conclusions.
Casual Yet Stylish Dinner Look
During the dinner outing, both Virat and Anushka kept it effortlessly stylish. Kohli opted for a basic T-shirt and trousers, while Anushka donned a beige jumpsuit, setting couple fashion goals with their laid-back yet coordinated look.
Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma began dating in 2013 after meeting on the set of a commercial. They tied the knot in a private ceremony in Italy in December 2017. The couple welcomed their first child, daughter Vamika, in January 2021, and their second child, son Akaay, was born on February 15, 2024.
