Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli at Premanand Maharaj's ashram in Vrindavan

Actor Anushka Sharma and her cricketer husband, Virat Kohli, recently visited Shri Premanand Govind Sharan Ji Maharaj in Vrindavan, Uttar Pradesh. Accompanied by their children, Vamika and Akaay, the couple's interaction with the saint has gone viral on social media.

In the widely circulated clip, Anushka is seen seeking the "devotion of love" from the saint and mentioning that she often listens to his spiritual discourses. Meanwhile, Virat sat quietly, holding Akaay in his arms, attentively listening to their conversation.

During her conversation with Premanand Maharaj, the actor said, "Pichli baar jab hum aaye they to mann mein kuch sawaal they. Mujeh laga ki puchungi lekin jo bhi baitha tha wahan pe, un sab ne kuch na kuch waisa sawaal kar liya tha. (The last time I came, I had a few questions in my heart. I wanted to ask those questions but someone else more or less covered it).

She continued with a smile on her face, "Jab yahan pe aane ki baat kar



rahe they, main aapse mann hi mann baat kar rahi thi. Agle din main Kanti Vartalap kholti thi aur koi na koi wo sawaal puch raha hota tha. Aap bas mujhe prem bhakti de do. (When I was thinking about coming here, I was talking to you inside my mind. The next day, I would open ‘Kanti Vartalap' and those questions would've been asked by someone. Now, all I want is your blessings.)

Replying to Anushka, Premanand Maharaj said (in Hindi), "These guys are very brave. To devote yourself to God after achieving such fame in the world is quite a difficult thing. We think that your (Anushka's) devotion towards God would have an impact on him (Kohli) as well."

In the video, Shri Premanand Govind Sharan Ji Maharaj can be heard praising Anushka for keeping Virat Kohli on the path of humility and faith despite being one of the most successful persons of his generation.

Anushka and Virat recently returned to India after the Australia test series.
