On Monday, Anushka Sharma came to Bengaluru's M Chinnaswamy Stadium to support her husband Virat Kohli's IPL squad during their match against the Chennai Super Kings (CSK).
On social media, a number of pictures and videos of Anushka taken at the stadium went viral. She might be seen sitting in the stands with RCB officials in one such video. When MS Dhoni came to bat, the support of the audience knocked her off her feet.
When Dhoni was delineating his zone, she was overheard telling her admirers, "They love him."
Even though the video was only available for a brief period of time, quick-thinking fans were able to lip-read what Anushka was saying to her friends.
Fans swarmed the comment area with red hearts and fire emoticons as soon as the video became popular on social media.
A supporter tweeted, "#MSDhoni, loved by the whole universe." "Moment of the day," said another enthusiast.
Speaking of the game, RCB suffered early setbacks as they lost the wickets of Virat Kohli and Mahipal Lomror while chasing a lofty total of 227. In the first over, Akash Singh got rid of Kohli, and in the second over, Tushar Deshpande defeated Lomror.
Glenn Maxwell and captain Faf du Plessis led the RCB's assault, destroying the CSK bowlers all over the field while taking singles at regular intervals. In just 48 balls, Maxwell and skipper Du Plessis' explosive combination reached 100 runs.
Pathirana gave his side an 8-run victory over RCB in the final over by defending a 19-run equation with his superb yorkers and removing Prabhudessai from the game.
Meanwhile, talking about Anushka, the actor will next be seen in Chakda Xpress, which is a biopic on Jhulan Goswami. The film is set for a Netflix release, and the premiere date is yet to be announced.
