Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma pictured at the airport.
Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli, flying home after a holiday in Paris and London, navigated Mumbai airport with the utmost caution so as to prevent the paparazzi from accidentally taking pictures of their toddler daughter Vamika. Pictures shared by fan clubs show Virat exiting the airport ahead of Anushka and Vamika and warning the assembled photographers to stop taking pictures. "Vamika ko jaane do, camera neeche kardo. Bohot neend mai hai, neeche kardo. Gaadi mai jaane do, phir aayenge. (Please let Vamika go, put down the cameras. She is very sleepy. First, let her get in the car, we will come back)," Virat told the paparazzi.
As promised, Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli returned to the airport arrival area and posed for photos:
Anushka and Virat appear to have developed this advance warning system after paparazzi took photos of Vamika last December at the airport. The pictures were not published and Anushka later wrote a thank you note, in which she said: "We are deeply thankful to the Indian paparazzi and most of the media fraternity for not publishing pictures/videos of Vamika. As parents, our request to the few who carried the images/video will be to support us going forward. We seek privacy for our child and would like to do our best to give her a chance to live her life freely away from media and social media. As she is older we cannot restrict her movement and hence your support is needed so kindly practice restraint in the matter."
Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli have repeatedly appealed for privacy for Vamika, who was born in January 2021. They have been careful not to reveal her face in photos shared on their own social media handles.
Anushka has shared just a handful of pictures from her vacation in Paris - none feature either Virat or Vamika. One of these is a photo of the Zero actress looking out of her hotel window, flashing her million-dollar smile. Sharing the picture, the actress quoted an iconic song from the movie Padosan. She wrote, "Mere saamne wali khidki mein...Paris musings".
Anushka also shared a pictorial breakdown of herself eating a croissant. "When is Paris .. eat many croissants," she wrote.
In London, Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli attended a musical performance by Krishna Das and also visited an Indian restaurant. Check out the posts below:
