Virat Kohli’s Gentleman Moment

Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli struck the perfect balance between comfort and traditional elegance during their travel outing, with Anushka looking radiant in a white floral-printed kurta paired with loose palazzo pants and a contrasting green dupatta, while Virat kept it classic in a black T-shirt and blue denim. Adding to the buzz, a viral “gentleman” moment showing Kohli carrying Anushka’s handbag as they entered the terminal won hearts online, with fans calling it a subtle yet strong reflection of their partnership.

Virat Kohli Instagram Like Controversy

The couple’s appearance also drew attention amid recent social media buzz involving Virat Kohli, after netizens noticed that his official account had liked an older post (dated January 30, 2026) by German-South African influencer Jennifer (Lizzalazz). The interaction quickly went viral, sparking a meme fest on X (Twitter) and Reddit before the “like” was reportedly removed. Reacting to the controversy, Jennifer said on April 18, “I felt a bit sorry for him actually... I don't even know how it became such a big story.” While Kohli has not issued an official statement on the incident, he remains focused on the ongoing IPL 2026, representing Royal Challengers Bengaluru. Anushka Sharma NOT a Part of Allu Arjun and Lokesh Kanagaraj’s Upcoming Film ‘AA 23’ (EXCLUSIVE)

Virat Kohli’s Old Instagram Like Row Resurfaces

This isn't the first time Kohli's social media activity has come under the microscope. In April 2025, a similar controversy erupted when he accidentally liked a photo of actress Avneet Kaur. At that time, Kohli took to his Instagram Stories to clarify the situation, “While clearing my feed, it appears the algorithm may have mistakenly registered an interaction. There was absolutely no intent behind it.” Fans have been quick to draw parallels, with many suggesting this latest incident was likely another case of fat-finger scrolling or an app glitch.
