Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli had tied the knot on December 11, 2017, and on January 11, 2021, they were blessed with a little angel, Vamika Sharma Kohli. The baby girl is one year old, and the star parents had perfectly ensured that their daughter’s face is hidden from the world to respect her privacy. While the paps were ardently following their request, on the night of January 23, 2022, the broadcasters of the India Vs South Africa cricket match shared the visuals of Vamika, which went viral on social media.
As Vamika Sharma Kohli has been accompanying her parents, Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli for his tournaments, the little girl is often spotted in the stands.

No wonder, the pictures went viral and Vamika’s cuteness broke the internet. Soon, people started comparing how she looks like her father, Virat.
