Virat Kohli & Anushka Sharma Visit Premanand Maharaj’s Ashram In Vrindavan Amid German Influencer's Pic Row

Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma were seen in Vrindavan for Akshaya Tritiya celebrations, even as an online debate over a “like” on a German influencer’s post continued to trend. A fan account posted a short clip from the visit, but viewers could not confirm whether it was filmed on 9 or 10 May.

The couple had already drawn attention at the airport on Sunday, where they were filmed together. In that clip, Virat Kohli kept a mask on, while Anushka Sharma wore a simple white salwar suit. Their latest public appearance follows days of discussion around Virat Kohli’s brief interaction with influencer LizLaz’s Instagram post.

Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma: LizLaz explains Instagram like and sudden attention

Fans first noticed the story when users spotted a “like” from Virat Kohli’s verified account on a photograph shared by LizLaz. Screenshots spread quickly, and the “like-and-unlike” episode fuelled widespread speculation online. After the buzz peaked, LizLaz spoke to Hindustan Times and described what the sudden focus on the post felt like.

Talking about being thrown into the sudden limelight, LizLaz told Hindustan Times, "No, I felt a bit sorry for him actually. I was so happy that he liked it, but then him unliking it-I felt a bit bad for him because I don't even know how it became such a big story. How did people notice? How did they make it news? That was probably not his intention behind it, but still, I am grateful for it and I appreciate the support from him."

LizLaz admitted that she did not realise how far the story had spread until later. "It was crazy because I woke up and then I was all over the news. I don't even know when he liked the picture-I learned through the news. So many people found the articles written about me on different platforms and sent them to me in my DMs. I got so many messages today; people were super excited about it," she said.

As the chatter around the “like” continued, users also circulated an older clip of LizLaz backing Royal Challengers Bengaluru. In that video, LizLaz spoke about supporting the team and mentioned travelling to a stadium with Bengaluru followers during the previous IPL season, where LizLaz watched a match from the stands.

Meanwhile, Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma continued to attract attention for their public appearances. A recent airport video showed Anushka Sharma gazing at Virat Kohli, drawing comments such as, "Find someone who looks at you the way Anushka looks at Virat." Away from social media, Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma are parents to two children, Vamika and Akaay.
