Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma had tied the knot way back in 2017 and the couple have two children. Vamika was their first child, born on January 11, 2021. Last year, the star couple announced the birth of their second child, a baby boy whom they named Akaay on February 20. Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma have decided not to reveal the faces of their children in a bid to protect their privacy and this has made room for many to generate AI (Artificial Intelligence) images and share them as if they were real.

In 2022, Vamika's first pictures emerged on social media when the little one was spotted in Anushka Sharma's arms in the stands watching India vs South Africa ODI match in Cape Town. As her pictures went viral, both Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma re-emphasised their stance of protecting Vamika's privacy and stated that they were caught off guard when the camera showed the little one with Anushka Sharma in the stands. "We realise that our daughter’s images were captured yesterday at the stadium and widely shared thereafter. We want to inform everyone that we were caught off guard and didn’t know that the camera was on us. Our stance and request on the matter stays the same. We would really appreciate if Vamika’s images are not clicked/published for reasons we have explained earlier," Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma wrote on their Instagram stories.
