India is witnessing a historic moment as protests involving the Cockroach Janata Party continue to gain momentum. Since it’s a huge movement, people are expecting celebrities with massive platforms to voice their opinions on the same. Although many stars have backed the protest, including Swara Bhaskar, Shabana Azmi, and more, there are quite a few who haven’t posted about the same on their social media yet. This list includes Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma, and fans are not happy about the same, especially after the two were reportedly spotted visiting Premanand Maharaj recently.

What Are Fans Saying About Virat Kohli And Anushka Sharma?

For the unaware, Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma were reportedly spotted in traditional attire walking barefoot while visiting Premanand Maharaj. The couple is known to be regularly visiting him to seek blessings. However, the photos from this visit went viral, and the intensity of people calling them out for not talking about the CJP protest at Jantar Mantar elevated. A person on Instagram acknowledged that millions of students follow Virat and look up to him, yet he couldn’t even speak a single word in their support. They asked what kind of role model he was. The user said that people admire him and expect him to stand up for what’s right, but instead he is “too afraid to say anything.” They added that Virat chose to stay silent and hide when his voice could actually make a difference. Many expressed disappointment by stating that they didn’t have a “spine.” A person commented under one of Anushka’s post saying “shame” amid the protest.
