Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma welcome baby boy

Indian cricket star Virat Kohli and Bollywood actress Anushka Sharma have announced the birth of their second child, a baby boy named Akaay, born on February 15th.

Anushka Sharma shared the heartwarming news on her social media platforms, expressing deep happiness and gratitude. The couple kindly requests blessings and well wishes during this special time while also appealing for privacy.

The name Akaay, with roots in Sanskrit, holds significant meaning beyond the physical, reflecting a thoughtful choice by the celebrity parents.

Congratulations and messages of love poured in from celebrity friends like Ranveer Singh and Vaani Kapoor, who conveyed their affection for the couple in the comments section.

Virat and Anushka had kept the pregnancy news private, opting to share their joy after the baby’s arrival. Previous hints from cricketer AB de Villiers had sparked speculation, later confirmed by the baby’s birth.

Their first child, daughter Vamika, was born in January 2021.

Fans eagerly anticipate Anushka Sharma’s return to the screen, particularly in her upcoming project, the biopic of cricketer Jhulan Goswami titled Chakda Xpress.
