On May 1st, a day enshrined in the annals of time, Bollywood luminary Anushka Sharma commemorated the passage of another year in her life. The illustrious occasion unfolded discreetly, in the company of her life partner, Indian cricket luminary Virat Kohli, and a cadre of comrades from the cricketing world. Though shrouded in secrecy, a glimpse into the festivities has now been unveiled by none other than Virat himself.

The commemoration of Anushka’s special day unfolded over a sumptuous repast, shared with her spouse and fellow cricket luminaries. Opting for a rendezvous in Bengaluru, the actress observed her 36th solar orbit at the opulent dining establishment known as Lupa, surrounded by the warmth of her intimate circle. Virat, taking to his official Instagram enclave, imparted a fleeting glimpse into the affair, showcasing a gastronomic manifesto bearing the epithet “Celebrating Anushka.”

“Gratitude to (Chef) Manu Chandra for orchestrating an unparalleled culinary odyssey on that ephemeral eve. Undoubtedly, one of the zenith epicurean sojourns of our existence,” quoth Virat, embellishing his photo post with effusive praise. The visual tableau suggests a soirée at Lupa, an haute cuisine sanctuary nestled in the heart of Bengaluru.

In reciprocal fashion, Anushka disseminated a group tableau from the jubilee, a captured moment previously immortalized by cricketer Faf du Plessis. Captioning the image, the South African sportsman intoned, “A convivial evening spent amongst kindred spirits…” Meanwhile, on the occasion of Anushka’s natal day, Virat unfurled a panoply of endearing portraiture on Instagram, penning a paean to his beloved that traversed the realms of profundity and ardor. “Verily, I would have been adrift in the tempests of existence had fate not led me to your ethereal presence. Felicitations, my cherished muse. Thou art the beacon illuminating our firmament. Our devotion unto thee knows no bounds,” he avowed.

Their paths first serendipitously crossed amidst the halcyon days of 2013, whilst engaged in the celluloid alchemy of a shampoo commercial. The year 2017 bore witness to their nuptial rites, clandestinely solemnized amidst the idyllic vistas of Tuscany, Italy. In 2021, their familial tableau was graced by the arrival of progeny, a cherubic daughter christened Vamika. A testament to their enduring bond, the advent of their second offspring was heralded in an official communiqué earlier this annum.

Turning our gaze to matters professional, Anushka Sharma is poised to grace the silver screen in “Chakda Xpress,” a celluloid ode to the cricketing luminary Jhulan Goswami. The undertaking heralds her return to the cinematic realm after an interregnum of nearly four lustrums. Her recent cinematic endeavor, “Zero,” co-starring luminaries Shah Rukh Khan and Katrina Kaif, awaits its imminent debut on the streaming juggernaut Netflix.
