Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma are back in the spotlight. The celebrity couple was spotted at Mumbai airport on Saturday, instantly setting social media on fire. As cameras flashed, Virat and Anushka smiled, waved at the paparazzi, and greeted fans before heading towards their car.
Dressed in relaxed yet stylish outfits, the couple looked calm and cheerful. Though their children, Vamika and Akaay, were not seen with them, Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma appeared to be in a great mood.
Virat-Anushka likely to attend Lionel Messi’s GOAT event in Mumbai
Videos and photos from the airport went viral within minutes. But what really caught everyone’s attention was why they were in Mumbai.
Fans began guessing that Virat Kohli might be in Mumbai to meet football legend Lionel Messi, who is currently visiting India as part of his three-day “GOAT India Tour 2025.”
Messi’s tour has begun with his first stop being Kolkata. He will be visiting Mumbai’s Wankhede Stadium on Sunday, December 14.
Although there is no official confirmation yet, the idea of Virat Kohli and Lionel Messi, two of the biggest sporting names in the world, meeting has thrilled fans.
Virat Kohli to play Vijay Hazare Trophy
Meanwhile, another reason behind Kohli’s visit to India could be his commitment to the Vijay Hazare Trophy. Reports indicate that he will play two Vijay Hazare matches for Delhi.
Rishabh Pant, meanwhile, is likely to be available for the full tournament, strengthening Delhi’s campaign.
Both players have been named in DDCA’s probables, with Bengaluru hosting Delhi’s opening games. Kohli’s appearance at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium is significant, as he will step onto RCB’s home ground for the first time since the deadly IPL stampede.
