As Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) gear up for a high-stakes clash against Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) in their final league match of the IPL 2025 season, a wholesome off-field moment between Virat Kohli and Zaheer Khan.
In a video shared by LSG’s official X handle, Zaheer was seen proudly showing Kohli pictures of his newborn son, Fatehsinh, whom he shares with actress and wife Sagarika Ghatge.
“Yeh dekh. Mr Fatehsinh,” Zaheer said, as he shared the photos with Kohli.
Virat, smiling and visibly touched, responded warmly and asked, "How's it going? Kispe gaya hai?" (Who does he resemble?). Zaheer explained that the baby is a mix of both him and Sagarika, saying his features resemble both parents. But it was Kohli’s sweet observation that truly won the moment and fans' hearts.
“His eyes are just like you,” Kohli said, making Zaheer break into a smile at the compliment.
Virat Kohli & Anushka Sharma Visit Hanuman Garhi Temple
Ahead of match against Lucknow Super GIants, Virat Kohli & Anushka Sharma took the opportunity to visit the Hanuman Garhi Temple in Ayodhya. The couple was seen offering prayers at a temple, where they bowed their heads. The temple priests welcomed the couple with garlands and shawls as part of the traditional ceremony.
This spiritual visit came shortly after their recent trip to Vrindavan, where they met with renowned spiritual leader Premanand Govind Sharan Ji Maharaj.
The visit also follows Kohli’s recent announcement of his retirement from Test cricket. Chairman of selectors Ajit Agarkar confirmed during the squad announcement for the England tour that Kohli had reached out to him in April, informing him of his decision to step away from the longest format of the game.
Kohli bid adieu to the longest format, after having played 123 Tests. He finished his career with 9230 runs at an average of 46.85 with 30 centuries and 31 fifties. He also smashed seven double centuries.
