Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma have time and again shown that despite their fame and success, spirituality plays an important role in their lives. The power couple has often chosen quiet faith over noise and attention, and their recent visit to Vrindavan once again reflected this belief. On Tuesday, Virat and Anushka reached the holy town to seek blessings from spiritual leader Premanand Ji Maharaj, marking their third visit to him.A video from their visit soon went viral on social media, drawing attention to their calm presence and deep devotion. Known for staying grounded, the couple once again reminded fans that faith and inner peace remain central to their lives.
Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma are all smiles as they listen to Premanand Maharaj
In the viral video, Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma are seen all smiles as they are sitting humbly in front of Premanand Maharaj. The couple greet him with respect and listen carefully as he delivers his sermon. Dressed in simple attire, they have maintained a low profile, keeping the moment personal and sincere.
Premanand Maharaj guides them spiritually
In the video, Premanand Maharaj can be seen advising Virat and Anushka to deepen their devotion towards God and approach life with sincerity. He encourages them to see their professional work as a form of service.Maharaj says, “Consecrate your work area to God, keep it with serious feelings and chant Naam often.” (Consider your field of work as service to God, remain sincere and serious in your intent, and chant God’s name wholeheartedly).
Spiritual message on choosing God
Premanand Maharaj further speaks about seeking God above worldly comforts saying, “He is my real father (God) who has made me once again beautiful, worthy of seeing, mine, loved. So once I aim to meet you. You showed everyone happiness. What we don’t want is what we want, what we want is you. And if you want, all your happiness will come in your food.” (The one who is our true Father, God, who created me, look at Him even once; He is very beautiful, worthy of being seen, close to us, and full of love. So one should make it a goal at least once in life that ‘now I want to meet You’. You have shown us all worldly comforts; now we do not want those, now we want You. And if we attain You, then all comforts will automatically come and rest at Your feet.)
Anushka Sharma expresses faith emotionally
During the interaction, Sharma can be seen responding to Premanand Maharaj’s words with visible emotion and sincerity saying, “Hum aapke hai maharaj ji, aur aap humare” (We belong to you, Maharaj ji, and you belong to us.)Premanand Maharaj gently responds by expanding the thought beyond personal bonds. He says, “We all belong to Siri. We are below a cloud, which is this blue cloud, sky. We are all his children, we are all his.” (We all belong to Shri Hari. We are all under one canopy, that blue canopy, the sky. We are all His children; we all belong to Him.)
Maharaj explains the spiritual life path
Premanand Maharaj then explains how spiritual growth happens step by step, with guidance and trust. He says, “If you do not know the path of the future, then we have taken your hand. Our hand is holding someone else, his hand is holding someone else, and his hand is holding someone else. This is how we are moving forward from the sequence.” (If you do not know the path ahead, you hold someone’s hand. Someone holds our hand, another holds their hand, and someone else holds that person’s hand. This is how we move forward step by step, in a continuous chain).He further speaks about the tradition of following teachers and spiritual guides. He says, “Oh, Acharya, Gurudev, we are moving on by tying his hand. This tradition has become such that we are tying someone’s hand. I am not so strong that I can walk on my own, so I am tying the hand of my Gurudev, and my Gurudev is tying the hand of his Gurudev.” (We walk forward by holding the hand of our chosen deity, our teacher, and our Guru. This tradition exists because we rely on someone and hold their hand. I do not have the strength to create the path on my own. That is why I hold my Guru’s hand, and my Guru holds the hand of his own Guru.)Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma have visited Premanand Maharaj multiple times in the past. This was their third visit, after earlier meetings in January and May 2025.
