The wait is over. Virat Kohli and the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) team have finally won the Indian Premier League (IPL) trophy after 18 long years. In the final, they defeated the Punjab Kings by 6 runs. Kohli was visibly emotional, with tears in his eyes, as he broke down on the field.
After the win, Kohli rushed to his wife, Anushka Sharma, and hugged her tightly. He whispered something in her ear, leaving fans wondering what he said. Anushka had been a constant presence throughout the tournament, cheering for RCB and her husband from the stands. During the final, she was seen praying and looking tense, but erupted in joy when the team won.
A fan shared a clip of the emotional moment on Reddit, asking others to lip-read what Kohli said to Anushka. The responses were hilarious and creative. One fan joked that Kohli said, “Let’s go to Varanasi this time.” Another quipped, “I think he said, ‘Let’s take a road trip from Lucknow to Kanpur’.”
Some fans got even more creative, with one saying, “He’s saying, ‘Now I can finally have Ram’s chhole bhature’.” Another fan joked that Anushka and Kohli would now decide what to wish for next from Prem Anand Maharaj. The light-hearted and humorous responses added to the celebratory atmosphere, as fans reveled in RCB’s long-awaited victory.
