Bollywood actor Anushka Sharma and cricket icon Virat Kohli have delighted fans by reuniting on screen for a heartwarming advertisement promoting tourism in Dubai. The commercial showcases their natural chemistry, playful interactions, and several endearing moments that have captured the attention of audiences worldwide.
A Decade of Togetherness Celebrated in the Desert
The advertisement opens with Virat Kohli requesting a surprise from Anushka Sharma during their Dubai vacation, humorously noting, "10 saal ho gaye, you should know me by now." Anushka responds with a confident smile, "10 saal ho gaye, I think I know you by now," before planning a cosy desert date. This exchange highlights the couple's decade-long relationship, which began when they first met while shooting a shampoo commercial years ago.
Playful Competition and Heartwarming Moments
The ad features several intimate scenes, including the couple cooking together and feeding each other, taking leisurely walks in the desert, and watching deer in the wild. In one segment, Anushka and Virat engage in a friendly game of volleyball, which Anushka wins. She cheekily remarks, "I told you, I'm the better athlete," to which Virat retorts, "And I'm a better dancer."
True to his word, Virat then breaks into energetic bhangra moves, impressing Anushka so much that she rates his performance a perfect 10 out of 10. This playful banter adds a light-hearted touch to the advertisement, showcasing their dynamic and affectionate relationship.
A Taste of Home in Dubai
In another heartwarming moment, Anushka serves Virat his favourite dish, chole bhature, treating the "Delhi boy" to a taste of home. Virat enthusiastically declares, "Proper Delhi waala taste hai," emphasising the authenticity of the meal. Towards the end of the clip, Anushka admits she is craving cold coffee, and Virat instantly surprises her with one, leading to a humorous exchange where Anushka calls him "cheeky" and Virat responds, "No, I'm Chiku."
Fan Reactions and Behind-the-Scenes Insights
The advertisement has garnered massive attention from fans, who were thrilled to see the couple share screen space once again. In a joint post sharing the video, Anushka and Virat wrote, "Sun, sand… and a little surprise! Join us as we explore Dubai's quiet deserts, beaches and wander through colourful streets (dance moves included!). From chole bhature to skyline views, every moment in Dubai is full of surprises; big or small, but always unforgettable. Ready to see what the city has in store for you?"
While Anushka Sharma has stepped away from the limelight to prioritise her family and raise her children, Vamika and Akaay, away from intense public scrutiny in India, her occasional appearances in advertisements continue to delight fans. The couple is currently based in London, where they enjoy a more private and "normal" life, making this Dubai tourism ad a special treat for their admirers.
This advertisement not only promotes Dubai as a tourist destination but also celebrates the enduring bond between Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli, offering fans a glimpse into their playful and loving relationship.
