In a video shared by a paparazzo, Anushka was seen rocking a cool and casual look in a blue shirt and denim, while Virat kept it classic in a white shirt and brown trousers. The two, walking side by side, radiated comfort and understated elegance. They briefly interacted with security personnel, before walking out of the airport with friends.

The airport appearance came a day after Anushka was seen cheering Virat during the Royal Challengers Bangalore versus Lucknow Super Giants IPL clash at the Ekana Stadium. RCB secured a crucial six-wicket victory on May 27, booking their place in the Qualifier 1 of IPL 2025.
But beyond the win, it was a romantic moment between the couple that stole hearts. After the match, a now-viral video captured Virat spotting Anushka in the stands. His reaction? A flying kiss straight to her. Anushka returned the sweet gesture with one of her own. That brief yet emotional exchange was enough to melt hearts and dominate social media timelines. Fans called it the 'cutest moment of the night," with many praising how their love story continues to shine both on and off the field.
While Anushka has stayed away from the big screen for a while, anticipation around her comeback is growing. She is set to headline Chakda Xpress, a biopic on cricket icon Jhulan Goswami. Produced by Anushka herself, the film has wrapped its shoot, but the release date remains under wraps, keeping fans eager for her return.

Inside RCB's title winning IPL campaign
AHMEDABAD: Krunal Pandya was jumping up and down with his fists up at the short third-man. Punjab Kings' Shashank Singh had sent Royal Challengers Bengaluru pacer Josh Hazlewood to the ropes on the fourth ball of the last over in the 2025 IPL final at the Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad, on Tuesday night. Krunal was not celebrating the fact that his teammate was hit for a four, but because he knew it did not matter. He knew he had won his fourth IPL trophy, and Royal Challengers Bengaluru had won their first. He knew no matter what happens in the next two deliveries, Ee saala cup namdu (this year, the cup is finally RCB's). Away from him in the deep midwicket boundary, Virat Kohli was struggling to keep it together. Right from the second ball of that Hazlewood over, Kohli had been shaking restlessly, waiting for it all to be over. He had turned towards AB de Villiers — a best friend and a former teammate — indicating that he was gonna cry. The tears dripped down over the next few deliveries before he eventually went down. In the other part of the ground was Rajat Patidar — the injury replacement batter from 2022, who had now become the first male captain to win a trophy for the Bengaluru franchise. He was smiling, but his cheeks were red, eyes were wet. It was a common emotion that prevailed not just on the players who were in the field waiting for Hazlewood to complete the over, but also on the 70,000-odd fans who had turned up in RCB colours in the stands. The moment they had been agonisingly waiting for finally came when Shashank smashed Hazlewood over the extra cover boundary. Nobody cared where the ball went or what the margin was. Not even the Punjab Kings team. They were too heartbroken to care. In fact, head coach Ricky Ponting would later ask the press corps whether the last ball was six and what the margin of defeat was. The margin — no matter how small it was — did not matter. RCB and Kohli knew it too. They have been on the losing side far too many times. Not on Tuesday. Not in 2025. This IPL, right from the day the mega auction was over, RCB had the markings of a title-winning squad. This was not a squad built on superstar batters on whom they historically spent more than they should. This was a team built with match-winners, players with specified roles and an Indian core that complemented Kohli. This was a campaign built on multiple heroes from different parts of the country and the world who came together to make the dream come true.

Upbeat Ajith Ram eyes strong show at TNPL
CHENNAI: Ace left-arm spinner S Ajith Ram was the cynosure of all eyes when he bagged the prestigious V Jagannathan Memorial Trophy at the TNCA annual day function recently for being the best bowler from Tamil Nadu in the Ranji Trophy. Visibly upbeat after that honour, he is now eager to keep up the good run during the Tamil Nadu Premier League (TNPL), which kick-starts on Thursday. Ajith Ram, who'll be representing Salem Spartans, has been looking to sharpen his skills in white-ball cricket. "Preparations for TNPL are actually going well. So, I am not thinking too much about what to do, what not to do. So, just trying to react to how things are going. Especially in T20 cricket, we have to react well. So, I am backing my skills to react well at the correct time. And depending on the team situation, try to execute the plan," he told this The New Indian Express. "I want to improve and do well in white-ball cricket. I haven't played for Tamil Nadu yet in white-ball and there is a lot of competition. So, this (TNPL) is a good challenge for me to do and see where I stand. If I can compete with others, that is enough for me. But if that gives me that opportunity to play for white-ball, I will be very happy." He has also been working on his batting with aspirations to make an impact down the order. "I'm also working on my batting. I am trying to take my game deep, because power-hitting is something that I have done for a long time now. So, I am just trying to, you know, contribute whatever I can," he added. His long-term ambition is to be part of the Indian Premier League. Ajit Ram felt TNPL is a good platform to highlight his talent. "I think I see it (TNPL) as a great platform for me to show my talent. And hopefully get an IPL contract. Because many players perform well in TNPL teams and are going ahead from here. So, I would also like to try this out and give my best to impress someone. Somewhere the talent scouts of the various IPL teams watch the TNPL matches. Hopefully, if I do well in front of them, I will have a chance to get picked," said Ajith Ram.

Euphoria for RCB turns into tragedy for Bengaluru
On Tuesday night, 18 years of heartbreak, despair and harrowing memories had finally given way to an indescribable euphoria. Royal Challengers Bengaluru, an Indian Premier League (IPL) outfit with one of the biggest fanbases, had finally scaled the peak it had promised to so often, only flattering to deceive. Tears of joy flowed from that indomitable cricketer, Virat Kohli. With the IPL crown too on his mantelpiece, he has won almost everything the world of cricket could offer. Naturally, the euphoria would spill out of the stadium in Ahmedabad. As soon as the Rajat Patidar-led side had beaten Punjab Kings in the final, people in Bengaluru had started one giant party. They were entitled to do so. That's the moment fans wait for in near-religious penance — the day when the tears of a 100 lonely nights are washed away by the magic of one trophy-laden celebration. On Wednesday afternoon, though, scenes of utter joy gave way to an utterly avoidable tragedy as at least 11 fans died while wanting to catch a glimpse of their team and their favourite stars with the trophy. Imagine that for a second. People leaving their homes hoping to get their own pictures of Virat Kohli. At least 11 of them will go back in coffins. Those tragic scenes at the Chinnaswamy Stadium would haunt the franchise forever. This points towards lack of basic planning. Victory parades and fandom are an integral part of club culture abroad. The European football landscape is replete with such events. Of course, not always without incident, but such stampede-like situations would be hard to imagine. Italy's Napoli had a season to remember: the celebrations were wild but without incident.
