This visit marked yet another spiritual stop for the couple, who have shared a longstanding bond with Shri Premanand Govind Sharan Ji Maharaj.
Anushka’s Thoughtful Question to the Spiritual Guru
During their latest interaction, Anushka was heard asking, “Kya naam jap se ho jayega?”. He replied, “Completely… I'm sharing this from my life experience. I have come to Bhakti Yoga after experiencing Sankhya Yoga, Ashtang Yoga, and Karma Yoga.”
He added, “It’s true that an increase in one’s glory and fame is not considered to be the grace of God. God’s grace is when there is a change in thinking within a person… God shows us the path of ultimate peace. Shri Krishna said in the Gita that my devotee is never destroyed. Chant God’s name with joy.”
Their Last Visit Went Viral
The couple had last visited Vrindavan in January this year. During that visit, a video went viral in which Premanand Maharaj praised Anushka for helping Virat remain grounded and spiritually devoted despite his towering success.
Kohli Bids Farewell to Test Cricket
Virat’s recent visit came just a day after he announced his retirement from Test cricket in an emotional post. The 36-year-old, who debuted in 2011, played 123 Tests for India, amassing 9,230 runs with 30 centuries and 31 half-centuries. In his heartfelt statement, he wrote, “It is not easy when I am going away from this format of the game. But it feels right. I have given it my all and it has given me more than my expectations.”
Following his announcement, tributes poured in from both the cricketing and film worlds. Celebrities like Ranveer Singh, Vicky Kaushal, Angad Bedi, and Suniel Shetty hailed Kohli’s remarkable contribution to Indian cricket.
