[Watch] Virat Kohli holds his son Akaay in adorable video

India star cricketer Virat Kohli was recently seen holding his son Akaay in a heartwarming video. Notably, Kohli and his wife Anushka Sharma welcomed their second child Akaay on February 15 this year.

The couple, who tied the knot in December 2017, also has a daughter named Vamika, who was born on January 11, 2021.

In a video doing the rounds on X, Kohli was seen holding his son as the couple went to what appears to be a flower shop. Watch the video below:

Kohli had left India following the 2024 T20 World Cup celebrations and the BCCI’s felicitation ceremony in Mumbai. The 35-year-old is reportedly staying with his family in London.

The right-hander retired from T20Is alongside India captain Rohit Sharma and Ravindra Jadeja. The decision came after he played a match-winning knock in the 2024 T20 World Cup final against South Africa. He finished as the only third batter with 4,000-plus runs in T20Is alongside Rohit and Pakistan captain Babar Azam.

In a recent interview, Virat Kohli said that he would lead a private life once he retires from cricket. He told the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) [via Economic Times]:

"So, it's just about not leaving any undone business behind and not having any regrets later, which I'm very sure of I won't. Once I'm done, I'll be gone; you won't see me for a while. So, I want to give it everything I have till the time I play and that's the only thing that keeps me going."

"I think, as sportsmen, we do have an end date to our careers, so I'm just working backwards, I don't want to finish my career thinking what if I had done this on that particular day because I can't keep going on and on forever," he added.

As per reports, Virat Kohli will be rested for the upcoming three-match ODI series in Sri Lanka. The selection committee will announce the T20I and ODI squads on Thursday, June 18.
