While we are ecstatic with the news of junior Virushka arriving soon, we are wondering how Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma had managed to keep their pregnancy under the wraps for months. Neetu Chandra of Garam Masala fame, who stays in the same building as Anushka’s parents, revealed in an interview with the TOI that she had a hint that the 32-year-old actress might be pregnant. Neetu said, "I had seen Anushka downstairs a couple of weeks back. I felt she was pregnant." When asked how she guessed it, Neetu replied, "Well, Anushka was glowing." Speaking of her equation with Anushka’s parents, Neetu remarked, "I am close to aunty and uncle. They are such genuine people." She continued, "A big congratulations to Anushka and Virat and their families as well. I am very happy for them."
Anushka Sharma had flaunted her cute baby bump and pregnancy glow in a black summer dress with white polka dots on it. And Virat Kohli had kept it simple, complementing his wife in a simple grey cotton tee and white pants. If you’re wondering how Virat and Anushka had managed to keep the pregnancy a secret for so long, a family friend of the couple answered the same in an interview with the the Etimes. The source said, “This pregnancy is easily the best kept secret to come out of Bollywood in a really long time.

She takes her personal space very seriously. So, she was extremely careful about not letting anyone see her or get any information about her pregnancy.” Virat and Anushka had laughed off the reports as mere speculation when some of their friends had tried to be nosey. The source continued, “They simply laughed it off as mere speculation and didn’t really want to add any fuel to the fire. Even a few actors and producers who are really close to Anushka were told that these are rumours.”
