Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli and his actress wife Anushka Sharma, who were blessed with a baby girl on January 11, have named their daughter Vamika.
On Monday, Anushka took to Instagram to share an image their daughter and captioned: “We have lived together with love, presence and gratitude as a way of life but this little one Vamika has taken it to a whole new level! Tears, laughter, worry, bliss – emotions that have been experienced in a span of minutes sometimes! Sleep is elusive but our hearts are so full of love. Thanking you all for your wishes, prayers and good energy.”
“We are thrilled to share with you that we have been blessed with a baby girl this afternoon. We thank you all for your love, prayers and good wishes,” Kohli had earlier informed through a statement on his social media handles.
“Anushka and the baby are both healthy and we are feeling beyond blessed to start this new chapter of our lives. We hope that you can respect our privacy at this time,” he added.
Significantly, Kohli and Anushka tied the knot in December 2017 in Tuscany, Italy. Earlier in December 2020, Kohli had returned home from Australia after participating in three ODIs, three T20Is and first Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy.
