Indian cricket star Virat Kohli and Bollywood actress Anushka Sharma have decided to relocate to London permanently with their two children, Vamika and Akay. This move comes after Kohli’s successful leadership in leading India to victory in the T20 World Cup in Barbados and his subsequent retirement from the T20 format. While Kohli will continue to play Test and ODI cricket, the couple is seeking a quieter life away from the spotlight of India’s bustling celebrity scene.
The decision to move to London is driven by their desire for a peaceful environment where their children can grow up away from constant recognition. They plan to reside in a city where they can move freely and provide an international education for their children. Reports suggest that the couple has been considering this move since the birth of their son, Akay, and they have already spent extended periods in London, especially after his birth.

Virat Kohli, who turns 36 later this year, expressed a desire to retire from international cricket at his peak and has found London to be a preferred destination due to its privacy and lifestyle. The family’s recent departure for London followed Kohli’s participation in a victory parade in Mumbai, marking a new chapter in their lives outside of India.
Those close to the couple believe that with Kohli’s retirement approaching, they are likely to settle permanently in the UK, possibly purchasing a luxurious home in London. The move reflects their commitment to finding tranquility and privacy away from the intense public scrutiny they face in India, where they are constantly in the public eye due to their careers and celebrity status.
