New Delhi: Bollywood actress Anushka Sharma and Indian cricketer Virat Kohli welcomed their second child, a baby boy. The actress shared the joyous news with her fans on social media. She revealed the name of the baby Akaay. Fans and well-wishers flooded social media with congratulatory messages.


The happy parents announced the birth of their son in an Instagram post. The post reads: “With abundant happiness and our hearts full of love, we are pleased to inform everyone that on 15th February, we welcomed our baby boy Akaay & Vamika’s little brother into this world! We seek your blessings and good wishes in this beautiful time in our lives. We request you to kindly respect our privacy at this time. Love & Gratitude, Virat & Anushka.”



Everyone over the globe is sending their best wishes for the new baby's birth. Sonam Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, Dia Mirza, Bhumi Pednekar and a bunch of other actors wrote "Congratulations".


Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli tied the knot in an intimate wedding in 2017. On January 11, 2021, they came home to a daughter named Vamika. Their daughter Vamika is two years old.


The couple kept quiet about this pregnancy. When it was Vamika's time, Anushka and Virat made the announcement that they were pregnant, and the star even shared photos of her growing belly. While Anushka was expecting her second kid, she remained quiet and didn't share the news on social media. Even the actor's public appearances were few and far between. 


Earlier, Hindustan Times reported that Anushka is expecting her second child. The media outlet quoted a source saying, "Anushka is expecting her second baby. Like the last time, they will formally share the news with the world at a later stage.”
