Since January 11, 2021, to this day, Virushka fans had eagerly waited to get a glimpse of Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma’s newborn daughter. Little did we know that the morning of February 1, 2021, will bring happy news for us! The internet was abuzz the moment new mom, Anushka Sharma had posted their first-ever family picture and had announced the name of their newborn daughter. Anushka had captioned the post as “We have lived together with love, presence and gratitude as a way of life but this little one, Vamika has taken it to a whole new level! Tears, laughter, worry, bliss - emotions that have been experienced in a span of minutes sometimes! Sleep is elusive but our hearts are SO full. Thanking you all for your wishes, prayers and good energy.”
It looked like the picture was taken when Virat and Anushka had welcomed their little one to their home. In the picture shared by Anushka, the room can be seen decorated with foil balloons and ‘baby girl’ balloons as the new parents posed happily in front of them. While Anushka held their little world in her hands, leaning over Virat, the dotting new father looked at his little girl with love. Soon after sharing the picture, the couple was flooded with blessings for their little wonder. However, it is daddy, Virat’s comment that melted our hearts as he wrote, “My whole world in one frame” followed by a red heart emoticon. Not just this, Anushka’s brother, Karnesh also expressed his joy of being a mamu for the first time. He shared Anushka’s post on his IG stories and wrote, “Vamika” followed by three red hearts atop it. Bua, Bhawna Kohli Dhingra also shared a screenshot of Anushka’s post and shared it on her IG handle to express her happiness. Take a look:

In a pre-delivery interview with the Vogue, Anushka Sharma had clarified that their newborn child won’t be engaged on social media. To begin with, Anushka had revealed that her parents are extremely honest and very hard-working, the attributes that Virat Kohli shares as well. On how they want to nurture their child and not raise brats, Anushka had said, “There are so many similarities in the way we are as people and the way we approach life. So, I do think that will work for us. I’ve been thinking about it before I even became a parent. Conditioning is the most important role in how we see the world. I come from a progressive background, so that will always be a part of our home. Love is the underlying factor in our home, and what’s important to us is that our child be respectful of people. You have to create that value structure. We don’t want to raise brats.” (Must Read: Cost Of Pregger, Kareena Kapoor's Padded Casette Bag For BFF, Amrita Arora's Birthday Is Shocking)
