There are few moments when Virat Kohli drops the intensity of the cricket field and simply lets his guard down. A new Dubai tourism advertisement does exactly that, showing Virat in a rare, relaxed and openly
romantic space with wife Anushka Sharma — and fans cannot get enough of it. Shared by the couple on Instagram on Thursday, the film feels less like a commercial and more like a window into their private world. The ad leans heavily on their chemistry, turning a travel promotion into a soft love story. The video opens with Virat and Anushka soaking in the Dubai skyline, where Virat challenges Anushka to surprise him. What follows is a series of thoughtful gestures. Anushka plans a quiet, private lunch date in the middle of the desert, setting the tone for the rest of their journey. From there, the couple heads out for wildlife sightseeing before switching gears to some light-hearted fun by the beach.
Off-duty Virat steals the show
The ad truly shines once the couple returns to their hotel. Virat is seen trying on clothes picked by Anushka, joking around and breaking into dance. It’s a side of the cricketer rarely seen on screen, especially alongside his wife. he moment ends with him kissing Anushka on the forehead and dancing with her. The highlight comes when Anushka surprises him with his favourite chole bhature in Dubai. Virat, visibly delighted, agrees to cheat on his strict diet.
Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma first met in 2013 on the set of a television advertisement. What began quietly soon grew into a relationship that survived constant public scrutiny and professional pressure. After keeping their bond private for years, the two married in an intimate ceremony in Tuscany, Italy, in December 2017. Since then, they have been careful about what they share publicly, making moments like this ad stand out even more.
