The Same Internet That Criticised Anushka Sharma Is Now Crediting Her For Virat Kohli’s RCB Triumph. Hypocrites!
On Sunday, May 31, RCB successfully defeated Shubhman Gill's Gujarat Titans (GT) with Virat being the top scorer and taking home the Player of the Match award.
Actor Anushka Sharma has been the talk of the town at every match ever since her dating rumours with cricketer Virat Kohli came out. From shaming her for just supporting her boyfriend to calling her “bad luck” for him, society has scrutinised the woman in every way possible. Amid this, Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) ‘s second consecutive win has come with a changed narrative, with many calling her his “lucky charm.” Read to know more about this hypocrisy here.
About Virat Kohli, Anushka Sharma
On Sunday, May 31, RCB successfully defeated Shubhman Gill’s Gujarat Titans (GT) with Virat being the top scorer and taking home the Player of the Match award. After winning, the player blew multiple kisses towards his wife, Anushka Sharma. Their on-field chemistry always ends up filling our Instagram feeds, and they were seen posing with their teammates and families, smiling throughout. Amid this, many on the internet called her the “lucky charm” of Virat, after years of her being called “unlucky.” Many others said RCB’s fate changed after Anushka regularly being in the stands over the past few years.

For the unversed, the actor had minimised her appearances at the matches between 2021 and 2024 when she had her children- Vamika and Akaay. One user called, “This Girl is So So lucky for Royal Challengers Bangalore. Now she is regular, we win.” This appreciation comes after years of Anushka being scrutinised nationally and being called “bad luck”, which would have been so traumatising for her. Coming to support one’s loved one, but being called unlucky is the worst thing. We must always know how to separate the two worlds.
