Star cricketer Virat Kohli and his wife, actress Anushka Sharma, chose a spiritual celebration after Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) secured a historic second consecutive IPL title in 2026. Soon after the grand victory, the couple traveled to Vrindavan to seek blessings from renowned spiritual leader Premanand Ji Maharaj.
RCB Creates History with Back-to-Back IPL Titles
RCB continued their dream run by lifting the IPL trophy for the second year in a row. After ending their long wait for a championship in 2025, the Bengaluru-based franchise successfully defended its title in 2026. In the final held on May 31, RCB delivered an impressive performance to defeat Gujarat Titans and claim the coveted trophy once again.
The victory sparked celebrations among fans across the country. Virat Kohli, who has been the face of the franchise for years, was seen enjoying the memorable moment with his teammates and family.

Anushka Shares Special Moments from the Celebration
Anushka Sharma gave fans a glimpse into the celebrations through her social media posts. She shared a picture of Virat wearing a T-shirt with a playful message celebrating RCB’s consecutive titles. Another heartwarming photo showed Virat proudly holding the IPL trophy while Anushka affectionately kissed him on the forehead.
The pictures quickly went viral, with fans showering the couple with love and congratulatory messages.
Spiritual Visit to Premanand Ji Maharaj’s Ashram
While many expected the couple to continue their celebrations in glamorous fashion, Virat and Anushka chose a different path. The day after RCB’s victory, they were spotted traveling to Vrindavan to visit Premanand Ji Maharaj’s ashram.
Videos circulating on social media showed the couple arriving at Agra Airport before making their way to Vrindavan. Dressed simply and wearing face masks, they maintained a low profile while seeking spiritual blessings.

A Strong Bond Built Over the Years
Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma’s relationship has been admired by fans for years. The two first met during the shoot of a television advertisement and gradually developed a close bond. After dating for several years, they tied the knot in a private ceremony in Italy in December 2017.
The couple welcomed their daughter Vamika in 2021 and their son Akaay in 2024. Despite their immense popularity, Virat and Anushka have consistently chosen to keep their children away from the public spotlight and rarely share their photographs on social media.

Their visit to Vrindavan after RCB’s historic achievement once again highlighted the couple’s grounded nature and deep spiritual beliefs, making the celebration even more meaningful.
