Bollywood actress and Virat Kohli’s wife, Anushka Sharma has posted an emotional tweet to convey her wishes to South African star batsman AB de Villiers who announced his retirement from all forms of cricket with immediate effect.
Anushka, who is currently shooting for ‘Zero’ opposite Shah Rukh Khan, took to her official Twitter handle hours after ABD announced his decision.
She wrote: “In life, what we do to positively impact the lives of others has greater meaning than what we accomplish for ourselves. You’ve managed to do both beautifully & always with such grace & integrity. Wishing you & Danielle a blessed, happy life ahead 🙏 @ABdeVilliers17 @DanielleDV27”
