However, it was a special moment for fans when their son, Akaay, was spotted in the stands as well. In some viral pictures circulating on social media, Akaay is seen seated on his grandfather’s lap, with Anushka sitting just ahead.

Virat Kohli Reaches Major Milestone in Perth Test
On the cricketing front, Virat Kohli is continuing his stellar career with a major milestone in the ongoing Test series. The former captain became the fifth Indian batsman to score 2,000 Test runs against Australia. Kohli achieved this feat in just 44 innings, joining the ranks of cricket legends like Sachin Tendulkar, VVS Laxman, Rahul Dravid, and Cheteshwar Pujara. The 36-year-old’s performance against Australia has seen him score eight centuries and five half-centuries, cementing his place as one of the all-time greats.
Vamika’s First Appearance In Past
During the India-South Africa cricket series, fans of Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli were delighted to catch their first glimpse of their daughter, Vamika Kohli, on camera. Vamika, along with her mother Anushka, was seen cheering for Virat from the stands. The camera briefly focused on the mother-daughter duo during the match broadcast, before shifting back to the action on the field.
Though there are claims from a fan that it was not Akaay Kohli, speculations continue to swirl on the internet, with fans getting excited about the possibility of seeing Virat Kohli’s little munchkin.
