Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli and Bollywood producer and actress Anushka Sharma got married in Italy on Monday.
But hours before they made it official via statements on Twitter and Instagram (with pictures from the stunning wedding ceremony), the Internet was already in meltdown mode. The hashtags #VirushkaWedding and #VirushkaKiShadi started trending on Monday evening and are still going strong on Twitter’s top trends, even today.
“Today we have promised each other to be bound in love forever. We are truly blessed to share the news with you,” the newlyweds wrote, adding that it had been a “beautiful day.”
One of the biggest Virat Kohli’s admirer and fan, Manushi Chhillar, who won the Miss World 2017 title last month, also took to Twitter to congratulate the lovely ‘Virushka’ couple.
“Hearty Congratulations Virat Kohli & Anushka Sharma! Have a blessed life! #Virushka #VirushkaWEDDING”, she tweeted.

Manushi met Virat at the CNN-IBN Indian of the Year 2017 Awards night where the Indian skipper presented the ‘Special Achievement Award’ to the beautiful young lady.
Also, during an interview with Rajdeep Sardesai, when questioned about her favourite cricketer, Manushi said, “I love Virat Kohli, he has achieved a lot.”
