Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma were seen at the Mumbai airport on Monday morning. Just a short while later, Virat surprised fans by announcing his retirement from Test cricket.
Paparazzi caught the couple stepping out of their car. They were in a rush but still flashed quick smiles for the cameras.
Anushka handed over her ID to Virat and helped with the luggage. Virat sported a beige linen look while Anushka wore a breezy oversized shirt and jeans.
After the airport clip went viral, Virat posted about retiring from the red-ball format on Instagram. His post reflected on a 14-year-long journey with the Indian Test team.
“It tested me, shaped me, and gave me more than I hoped for,” Virat wrote. He thanked the format for its deep personal impact.
Anushka, meanwhile, continues to keep it low-key in films. Her next, ‘Chakda Xpress,’ is ready but awaits a release date.
The timing of Virat’s airport appearance and shock announcement left fans emotional and nostalgic. One chapter ends, but the memories stay strong.
