In an old interview with ESPN, Virat Kohli opened up about his plans of having a family. Responding positively to the query, the Indian cricketer said that whenever the time comes, he would like to dedicate all his time to his wife and kids.
He was quoted as saying, "I have a life. I have a family. I will have kids. They deserve all my time. That is something that is very, very clear and close to my heart. I want no part of my career being flashed into my house. I want no part of my trophies, my achievements, nothing in my house when our kids are growing up."
In the same interview, he also spoke highly of his wife, Bollywood actress Anushka Sharma, and said that she brings peace and calm into his life. He added that since the PK actress is a very spiritual person, he has drifted on that path. "Now things are unlocking in a way that is very difficult for me to explain to people. But I understand that I was always meant to do this. If I am meant to do this in every lifetime of mine, I will do it 100 times over. It's a blessing," Virat divulged.
