Virat Kohli on his first encounter with Anushka Sharma

Going back in time and recalling the moment when he was going to shoot for an ad in 2013, Virat Kohli revealed that it was 2013 and he was just named the captain for the Zimbabwe tour. It was then that his manager came to him and told him that he was going to shoot with Anushka Sharma. The Indian cricketer revealed that the moment he heard this, he was quite nervous. Anushka was already a renowned actress at that time and Virat admitted that he had no idea how to approach her. He added that he cracked an unamusing joke about her heels when they met for the ad shoot but eventually hit it off after a few meets.

"Out of nervousness, I didn't realise how tall she was. So the first thing I told her when I saw her heels was, 'Didn't you get anything higher to wear?' and she was like 'Excuse me?' It was so bad, I was so nervous. But then I figured out that she was a normal person and when we got talking I realized our background was so similar. From there on we became friends and then gradually we started dating, it didn't happen instantly," Virat Kohli added.
