Albert Schweitzer has rightly said, “Happiness is the only thing that multiplies when you share it.” When you have someone by your side throughout your journey, it makes it even more beautiful and sharing the achievements and milestones with that special someone is like a cherry on the cake. The little joys of life become more memorable and special if we have someone to share them with. If we speak about B-town, then Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma are the exemplars to define the true meaning of love. Virat and Anushka had parallelly begun their professional journeys at the same time more than a decade ago and today, they are celebrated in their respective fields. Ask any of them, anytime about their success, and the lovebirds would credit each other for the same.
