Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli got married back in 2017 after dating for several years. The duo is tagged as an 'It' couple in Bollywood, and they never skip a chance to prove the same. Anushka and Virat are parents to their two kids, Vamika and Akaay, and the couple, along with their kids, have been living in London, away from the hustle and bustle of Mumbai. Recently, the actress touched down in Mumbai for an event and shared some unheard anecdotes about her parenting journey. She also revealed how she brings out the actress in her to trick Vamika into eating healthy.
At the Slurrp Farm’s YES Moms & Dads event, Anushka Sharma talked about her kids' eating habits and revealed that until the kids are two years old, it's super easy for moms to restrict the little ones from eating junk food, as at that time, the moms can create a bubble for them, and make them fool. The actress added that after the kids start to grow up, they see things and realise what they have been being restricted from, and this is what she has been going through with Vamika. Anushka can be quoted as saying:

"This was a hard one. Your kid is two, and if it is your firstborn, then it’s kind of easier because they haven’t been to that many birthday parties. They don’t know that cake exists and there is pizza in the world. You create this nice little bubble for them. You are fooling them well. And then they start seeing things; ‘Oh! Wait a minute, what is that woman not been showing me?’ So, I am going through that with my daughter.”
At the same event, Anushka Sharma revealed that the only way that she could let Vamika know about eating healthy is by giving her animated explanations. The actress revealed how she explained to her daughter how eating healthy can provide her with energy and how the otherwise may happen with unhealthy food.
Anushka added that possibly Vamika doesn't buy her stories and reacts, 'Whatever, just give it!'. Anushka added that she brings out her actress self while trying to explain the benefit of healthy eating to her daughter. Anushka said:
"I make it sound more interesting than I am making it to you guys right now. But I feel like she doesn’t buy most of the times, she is like, ‘Whatever, just give it!’ I also pick days and give a very lengthy explanations, which I try to make fun. I bring out the actress in me…”
In the same interview, Anushka Sharma shared that she recently took Vamika to an ice cream museum in Singapore and gave her the liberty to eat ice cream as much as she wanted to, as the little one is obsessed with ice creams. Anushka remarked that, to her very surprise, Vamika only ate two ice creams, and that was all. The actress added that this actually happened for inculcating good habits inside of them. In Anushka's words:

"I took her to an ice cream museum because she loves ice cream. She is obsessed. There, I told her, ‘Eat as much as you want’. She didn’t eat that much. So, I think when you inculcate the right kind of habits in the beginning, they don’t stuff themselves with 10 ice creams. She must have had two, and then she was like, ‘I am done.’ So if you inculcate the right habits in the beginning, they’ll make the right choice."
In an interview with Danish Sait, on Royal Challengers Bangalore's official handle, Virat Kohli was asked about his kids' career choices. To this, the cricketer revealed that what his kids would want to do would solely depend on the little ones. Virat also shared that Vamika enjoyed swinging a bat as she held it for the first time. Well, Virat's eyes sparked while speaking about the same, which proves how happy and proud he must have felt when his daughter swung the bat.
