This is not the first time they have visited the spiritual guru. Not only have they paid him a visit earlier also to seek his blessings but they have attended his satang on multiple occasions. Both Kohli and Anushka were also seen at the ashram previously with their kids Vamika and Akaay.
Meanwhile, after confirming his decision to retire from the longest format, Kohli will just be seen donning the Indian jersey in the ODIs only, having already retired from the T20Is last year along with Rohit. Apart from the 50-over format, Kohli would be seen in the IPL playing for the Royal Challengers Bengaluru.
