After a 17-year wait, Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) finally raised their first Indian Premier League (IPL) trophy in 2025, causing a moment of unadulterated joy and excitement.
In addition to being celebrated by millions of fans worldwide, the victory represented a very personal turning point for RCB veteran Virat Kohli, which was exquisitely captured by his wife, actor-producer Anushka Sharma, giving him an emotional embrace.
Virat Kohli kissed wife Anushka Sharma's forehead after the victory of RCB in IPL 2025.
A heartwarming moment between the couple was caught on camera after RCB's exciting victory over Punjab Kings (PBKS) at Ahmedabad's Narendra Modi Stadium. Anushka rushed up to embrace Kohli as he left the pitch, clearly overcome.
One of the iconic photos of IPL 2025, the picture of the two embracing with smiles and tears in their eyes went viral on social media very fast.
Anushka had been spotted throughout the game, cheering from the stands and responding fervently to each wicket, boundary, and strategic move while sporting a basic yet stylish white shirt and jeans.
Her steadfast support over the years has frequently garnered media attention, but this particular occasion—following RCB's eagerly anticipated championship victory—felt particularly significant.
With his signature intensity and over 600 runs scored, Virat Kohli, who had an incredible season, played a key role in the RCB campaign. His IPL journey, which started in 2008 and has been characterised by tenacity, passion, and an unwavering dedication to the team, is enhanced by this title win.
While fans celebrated with chants of “Ee Sala Cup Namde,” the tender moment between Anushka and Virat underscored just how personal and emotional this triumph was for the couple.
With RCB finally etching their name in IPL history, the 2025 final will be remembered not only for its sporting significance but also for the human moments that made it unforgettable.
