While the romance and marriage of Indian cricket star Virat Kohli and actress Anushka Sharma remain widely celebrated, details from a past interview highlight Kohli’s early childhood crush on 90s Bollywood icon Karisma Kapoor.
In a previously recorded interview referenced by Indian media reports, Kohli disclosed that Karisma Kapoor was his very first celebrity crush while growing up during the peak of her acting career in the 1990s. The cricketer clarified that there was never any romantic relationship or dating history between the two, as it was strictly a fan’s admiration during his early youth.
Kohli later met his wife, Anushka Sharma, in 2013 on the set of a commercial shoot, leading to a long-term relationship and their eventual marriage in Italy in 2017.
