Virat Kohli’s recent social media activity unexpectedly stirred up a buzz online after fans spotted that he had liked a post from a fan page dedicated to actress Avneet Kaur. The move quickly caught people’s attention and sparked a flurry of reactions. Many of the social media users started cracking jokes and bringing up his wife, actress Anushka Sharma, in their comments.

Virat remained silent at first, but later, when the screenshots of him liking the post began circulating widely on X (formerly Twitter) and Instagram, the cricketer addressed the situation through his Instagram Stories.
He wrote: “I’d like to clarify that while clearing my feed, it appears the algorithm may have mistakenly registered an interaction. There was absolutely no intent behind it. I request that no unnecessary assumptions be made. Thank you for your understanding.”
Without mentioning either the actress or the fan page, Kohli kept his message simple and focused, aiming to put an end to the speculation without fuelling it further. Following the statement, the like was quietly removed.
Kohli recently celebrated Anushka Sharma’s birthday with a warm and affectionate post on social media. The couple, who got married in 2017, welcomed their second child, Akaay, in February last year. They are currently believed to be living in London, opting for a more peaceful, private life as they raise their children, Vamika and Akaay, away from the spotlight.
On the professional front, Kohli remains a key player in the ongoing 2025 season of the Indian Premier League. Representing Royal Challengers Bengaluru, his team has shown strong form this year, securing seven wins from ten matches.
