Virat Kohli helping pregnant wife Anushka Sharma perform Shirshasana winning hearts on social media
Xtra Time Web Desk: Celebrity couple Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma was trending on social media on Tuesday with the latest post from the Bollywood actor. Anushka, who is expecting her first child in January, posted a throwback picture of her husband helping her perform yoga. Kohli, who is with the Indian team currently in Australia, will be returning home on paternity leave after the first Test at Adelaide.
Sharing the picture on her instagram handle, Anushka wrote, "This exercise is 'hands-down' (and legs up) the most difficult one,"
She went on to add that yoga has been a big part of her pregnancy.
“As yoga is a big part of my life, my doctor recommended that I can do all such asanas that I was doing before I was pregnant barring twists & extreme-forward bends, but of course with the appropriate and required support. For the Shirshasana, which I have been doing for many years, I ensured that I used the wall for support and also my very able husband supporting me balance, to be extra safe. This was also done under the supervision of my yoga teacher @eefa_shrof who was virtually with me through this session. I’m so glad I could continue my practice through my pregnancy.”
Kohli and Anushka got married in 2017 and in August this year the two announced that they are expecting their first child. Anushka, who was with Kohli during the IPL matches in UAE, recently celebrated her husband’s birthday with RCB teammates. The couple was seen sharing the first piece of cake in a private party arranged by the franchise.
The 32-year-old has scored 11,977 runs in One-day International cricket and 7240 runs in Tests in a career that has spanned more than 12 years. He has scored 70 international hundreds (43 in ODIs and 27 in tests) with a career best of 254 not out.
