Virat Kohli requests camera crew not to take his daughter’s photo as team leaves for South Africa
The Indian Test Team, headed by Virat Kohli, has reached South Africa for the much-awaited three-match series. The 18-member squad, along with their family members, was snapped at the Mumbai Airport.
Kohli’s wife Anushka Sharma and daughter Vamika were also there in the team bus which grabbed the eyeballs of the paparazzi, However, the 33-year-old was quick to get off the bus and request the camera crew not to take the couple’s daughter’s photograph. Notably, Virat and Anushka have constantly been reluctant to release a picture of their kid in the media.
The duo tied the knot back in December 2019 and they recently celebrated their fourth wedding anniversary last week. Vamika is also about to turn one on January 11, 2022, while Kohli will be playing the ODI series against the Proteas.
