Indian cricketer Virat Kohli and actress Anushka Sharma visited the ashram of Premanand Ji Maharaj in Vrindavan to seek spiritual blessings [1].
The visit highlights the couple's ongoing connection to spiritual leadership in India and draws significant public attention due to their status as two of the most influential figures in sports and cinema.
Reports indicate the couple traveled to Vrindavan, Uttar Pradesh, after arriving from the Mumbai airport [1]. The trip reportedly took place following the birthday of their son, Akaay [1]. This visit marks the third time the couple has visited the ashram of Premanand Ji Maharaj [3].
During the encounter, the couple expressed their devotion to the spiritual leader. "Hum aapke hai maharaj ji, aur aap humare," Kohli and Sharma said [3].
While the visit focused on spirituality, observers noted the luxury accessories worn by the athlete. Kohli wore a watch with a reported value of ₹60,00,000 [4].
The appearance of the high-profile couple in Vrindavan has generated significant interest across social media platforms, where images of the meeting have circulated widely. The visit underscores a trend of prominent public figures seeking guidance from traditional spiritual leaders in the region.
“"Hum aapke hai maharaj ji, aur aap humare."”
The recurring visits by Kohli and Sharma to Premanand Ji Maharaj reflect a broader cultural intersection in India where global celebrity status and traditional spiritualism coexist. By publicly associating with the ashram, the couple reinforces the influence of spiritual leaders on the private and public lives of India's elite, while the scrutiny of Kohli's luxury watch illustrates the persistent tension between ascetic spiritual settings and the immense wealth of modern stardom.
