Cricketer Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma visited Vrindavan on 2 June, two days after guiding Royal Challengers Bengaluru to the IPL 2026 title. The couple reached the holy town by car, walked barefoot into Keli Kunj Ashram, met Sant Premanand, and received blessings following the championship win.
Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma arrived at the ashram at around 7 am. Disciples of Sant Premanand welcomed the couple at the entrance. Both wore masks and moved straight inside for a private darshan. After spending close to two hours there, they came out quietly from the premises.
