Virat Kohli & Anushka Sharma’s 4-Hour Café Chat with Jemimah Rodrigues Ends in a Fun Twist
Indian women’s cricket star Jemimah Rodrigues recently shared a heartwarming yet funny memory involving cricket legend Virat Kohli and Bollywood star Anushka Sharma — one that ended with the trio being politely asked to leave a café in New Zealand.
A Café Conversation That Went Beyond Cricket
Back when the Indian men’s and women’s teams were lodged at the same hotel in New Zealand, Jemimah and her teammate Smriti Mandhana sought Virat’s advice on batting. Virat happily agreed, and along with Anushka, joined them at a café inside the hotel.
What started as a simple half-hour discussion on cricket soon turned into something more. Jemimah recalls Virat’s inspiring words: “He told Smriti and me that we have the power to change women’s cricket, and he could see that happening.”
From cricket, the conversation drifted to life, challenges, and personal experiences. Jemimah described the interaction as if they were “long-lost friends catching up.”
But there was just one problem — the chat went on for nearly four hours, so long that the café staff eventually had to request them to leave. Jemimah laughed as she recalled, “The only reason we stopped was because the café staff kicked us out.”
Virat and Anushka’s Life in London
Away from cricket fields and film sets, Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma have chosen to build a quieter life in London. The couple, along with their two children Vamika and Akaay, are often spotted enjoying strolls around the city, far from the constant glare of paparazzi in India.
Virat is occasionally seen interacting with fans, posing for selfies, and keeping up with his practice sessions. Anushka, meanwhile, is taking a step back from films to focus on her family, with reports suggesting that her much-awaited project Chakda Xpress may not move forward.
A Glimpse Into the Couple’s Warmth
The café incident highlights more than just a funny moment — it reflects Virat and Anushka’s grounded personalities. Despite being global icons, they welcomed Jemimah and Smriti with warmth, offering not only cricketing insights but also genuine friendship.
As Jemimah’s story shows, sometimes the most memorable moments aren’t found in stadiums or film premieres, but in a cozy café corner where conversations stretch for hours — until the staff finally says it’s time to leave.
