Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli's sweet moment steals hearts as RCB reaches IPL finale for the first time, watch video

After Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) stormed into the IPL 2025 final with a dominant eight-wicket win over Punjab Kings (PBKS) in Qualifier 1, the celebrations extended well beyond the field. Among the jubilant fans was Bollywood actor Anushka Sharma, who lit up the stands with her joy and pride as her husband, Virat Kohli, led the team to a historic victory at the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Stadium in New Chandigarh on May 30.

The match was a one-sided affair, with Punjab Kings collapsing for just 101 runs in 14.1 overs—the joint second-lowest total in IPL playoff history. RCB’s bowlers, especially Suyash Sharma (3/17) and Josh Hazlewood (3/21), delivered a masterclass. In response, RCB chased down the target in only 10 overs, with Phil Salt’s explosive 56* off 27 balls sealing the emphatic win. Kohli, though dismissed early for 12, played his role as leader with confidence and composure.

Amid the electric atmosphere, fans were treated to a heartwarming moment between Anushka and Virat. A video going viral online shows a loving exchange between the two—a smiling Kohli pointing at his wife in the stands from the field, as if signaling that they are now just one step away from the coveted IPL trophy. The gesture was met with wide smiles from Anushka, who appeared visibly emotional.

Anushka, dressed casually yet chic, cheered passionately throughout the game. After the final run was scored, she was seen clapping and applauding the team for nearly 10 minutes. She remained in the stands, soaking in the celebrations and supporting her husband from afar as Kohli went around shaking hands with PBKS players—a display of sportsmanship and grace.

RCB’s qualification to their first IPL final in nine years is already a milestone, and with one match left for glory, the Kohli-Sharma duo’s sweet post-match moment added an emotional layer to an already memorable night for RCB fans.
