de Villiers chat show Virat revealed I remember it was 2013 I had just been named the captain for the Zimbabwe Tour I was excited Then my manager called up about a TV commercial He told me that I was shooting with Anushka Sharma She was a wellestablished one of the top actors As soon as I heard that I was shivering I was so nervous I was so so tensed before walking on the set of the ad shoot in 2013 I was thinking how am I going to say hi to her What am I going to say I was so completely out of itThe cricketer shared the first meeting with her was bad It was so bad I was so nervous But then the shoot went on and I kind of figured out along the whole day she was a pretty normal person We could connect on the same things that a usual middleclass household would experience We really connected on those experiences he saidView this post on InstagramA post shared by AnushkaSharma1588 anushkasharmaRumours of Anushka and Virats relationship gained ground in 2014 when he was seen

in the interview with AB de Villiers that he and Anushka didnt start dating immediately It was not like we started dating immediately We spoke for a long time I thought I was dating her already We had hung out for a few months and I remember one day I sent her this message When I used to be single I used to do this and that She is like What do you mean you used to be I had already decided in my mind that we were dating That was again a little awkward But then eventually she found me to be a decent guy he addedIn October 2014 they made their first public appearance when they went to watch an

anushkasharmaVirat reacted to the trolling on X and wrote Shame on those people who have been having a go at Anushka for the longest time and connecting every negative thing to her Shame on those people calling themselves educated Shame on blaming and making fun of her when she has no control over what i do with my sport If anything she has only motivated and given me more positivity This was long time coming Shame on these people that hide and take a dig And i dont need any respect for this post Have some compassion and respect her Think of how your sister or girlfriend or wife would feel
