Watch: Anushka Sharma Ignores Virat Kohli’s Hand In Viral Video Amid Instagram Controversy
Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma’s recent dinner date went viral after Anushka seemingly ignored Virat’s sweet gesture amid his Instagram controversy.
Just days after Indian cricketer Virat Kohli sparked a frenzy online for accidentally liking a fan-posted picture of actress Avneet Kaur, he made his first public appearance alongside wife and actress Anushka Sharma. The couple was spotted on a casual dinner outing in Bengaluru on Tuesday evening, but it wasn’t just their outing that grabbed attention. A viral video from the evening has now sparked a different kind of buzz on social media. In the clip doing the rounds online, Virat is seen stepping out of their car and extending his hand to assist Anushka.
But the actress seemingly ignored the gesture, choosing instead to use the door for support as she exited the car. What followed was a walk towards the restaurant, with Anushka Sharma walking slightly ahead while Virat Kohli trailed behind.
Dressed casually, the couple kept their looks understated – Virat Kohli wore a simple T-shirt and trousers, while Anushka Sharma opted for a beige jumpsuit.
The video quickly surfaced on Reddit and social media platforms, where users dissected the brief but telling interaction.

One Reddit user commented, “Lagta hai anushka gussa hai.”
A second user added, “Haath nhi pakda Anushka ne. Ab failengi divorce rumours.”
Another one wrote, “Poor virat anushka let it go na.”
One fan quipped, “Algorithm mistakenly showed that Anushka didn't hold Virat's hand. There was absolutely no intent behind it,” playfully referencing Virat Kohli’s explanation about the Instagram mishap.
For context, Virat Kohli’s name was all over the headlines after users noticed his official Instagram handle had liked a photo of Avneet Kaur shared by a fan page. Though the like was removed shortly after, screenshots had already gone viral, forcing Virat Kohli to address the speculation.
Despite the clarification, the buzz refused to die down – until now, with the couple’s dinner outing adding more fuel to the chatter.
Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma have been together since 2013, when they first met on the sets of a commercial. They tied the knot in an intimate wedding in Italy in December 2017. The couple welcomed their daughter Vamika in 2021 and became parents to a baby boy named Akaay in February 2024.
From accidental likes to viral videos, Anushka and Virat, fondly referred to as Virushka by their fans, remain the internet’s favourite obsession – intentional or not.
