The Indian power couple, Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma always manage to hogg some spotlight. While Kohli is a superstar cricketer, Anushka is a well-known actor. Virat has often said how Anushka has been one of the biggest strengths of his life. He recently opened up on his struggles and how his wife and actor Anushka Sharma helped him.
During a recent chat with ex-CSK star Robin Uthappa on Jio Cinema, Virat Kohli said, “When you go back from a space like this. It’s easy immediately to go like ‘ah, everything is so good and it’s okay’. That’s why I say Anushka’s name first because she has seen the challenges of being in this position. She knows it. She has been there for so many years. She knows what it takes to handle public pressure. So, her conversations with me has always been priceless. She tells me the truth, simple.”

The star couple got married in 2017 and now have a beautiful daughter named Vamika. The duo can often be seen together in events and TV ads. However, the confident man that he is on the cricket field, Virat Kohli revealed that he was very nervous before his first meeting with Anushka way back in 2013. He even said that in his nervousness he also made some awkward statements.
Recalling the same during a chat with AB de Villiers said, “I remember it was 2013. I had just been named the captain for the Zimbabwe Tour, I was excited. Then my manager called up about a TV commercial. He told me that I was shooting with Anushka Sharma. She was a well-established, one of the top actors. As soon as I heard that, I was shivering. I was so nervous.”

He further added, “I was so, so tensed before walking on the set (of the ad shoot in 2013). I was thinking ‘how am I going to say hi to her? What am I going to say?’.” I was so completely out of it. I went there 5 minutes before her. I did not realise how tall she was. Out of my nervousness…First thing I told her, she was wearing a decent-high heels. The first thing I told her when I saw her heel was ‘Didn’t you get anything higher to wear?'”
