Virat Kohli Spiritual Visit to Vrindavan

On May 13, Indian cricket legend Virat Kohli and his spouse, Anushka Sharma, traveled to Vrindavan to ask Premanand Ji Maharaj for his blessings. On social media, a video of their visit is going viral.

This is not the first time the couple has made a spiritual trip to this revered destination. Both Kohli and Anushka have been spotted at Premanand Ji Maharaj’s ashram in the past, often seeking peace and guidance during significant phases of their lives.

Retirement from Test Cricket

Kohli’s visit comes shortly after he announced his retirement from international Test cricket.

• In 2024, he had previously withdrawn from T20 Internationals,
• And now continues to play only One Day Internationals (ODIs) for Team India.

With this, a significant phase of Kohli's career comes to a close. Known for his passion, aggression, and match-winning knocks, Kohli leaves behind an unmatched legacy in red-ball cricket.
