Team India captain Virat Kohli took to Instagram to interact with fans, during which he also went on to reveal the meaning of newly-born daughter. Kohli and Anushka Sharma were blessed with a girl child in January this year.
The cricketer was responding to a query by a fan, who wished to know the meaning of Vamika, the name of Kohli’s daughter, and also get a glimpse of her.
“Vamika is another name for goddess Durga,” wrote Kohli.
On his request for a picture, Kohli added: “No we have decided as a couple to not expose our child to social media before she has an understanding of what social media is and can make her own choice.”
In the 14th edition of the Indian Premier League, which was suspended midway due to COVID-19, Kohli’s had dedicated his match-defining knock to his daughter. In the clash between Royal Challengers Bangalore and Rajasthan Royals, which the former won by ten wickets, Kohli celebrated his fifty with a kiss and a gesture of a cradle, indicating that he is dedicating the knock to his newborn daughter, Vamika.
