After hosting their first reception in Delhi, high-profile couple Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma hosted their second reception attended by stars from both the sporting world and the film world here on Tuesday, on December 26.

The couple looked beautiful. While Anushka seen in side slick hair with cascading curls and nude lips to go with the elegant vibe of her ensemble and wearing a Sabyasachi creation – a dull gold heavily embroidered and embellished lehenga set teamed with a matching dupatta, cinched at the waist with a signature Sabyasachi belt. She completed the heavy dress with simple earing studs, a diamond neck-piece and traditional Punjabi red bangles set. Hubby Virat wore a navy velvet bandhgala which he paired with a pair of white pants and brown shoes.

At the reception at St Regis’ Astor Ballroom, the sports world was represented by Chief selector Sandeep Patil, Saina Nehwal, Ravindra Jadeja, M.S. Dhoni, Rohit Sharma, Virender Sehwag, Sunil Gavaskar, Sachin Tendulkar, Hardik Pandya, Zaheer Khan, and many more, while Bollywood bigwigs such as Rekha, Madhuri Dixit Nene, Kangana Ranaut, Aditya Roy Kapur, Priyanka Chopra, Sidharth Malhotra Rajkumar Hirani, newbie Sara Ali Khan and Ibrahim Ali Khan, Dino Morea, Music Maestro A.R. Rahman were present.

While it was Virushka’s post-wedding reception, it was an out and out SRK show. All thanks to the superstar, the event was a lit affair. Relating Virat’s love for Anushka to the poem he had recited in Jab Tak Hai Jaan, King Khan made the cricketer repeat the same on stage but added a touch of his well-known humor. Instead of ending the verse with ‘Jab Tak Hai Jaan’, the actor says ‘Jab Tak Hai Khan’ and everyone including the couple bursts into laughter. Trust Shah Rukh Khan to light up every affair with his ever-charming personality.

Right from their environment-friendly invites with saplings to the anthology of Rumi’s poems as return gifts, the couple seems to have invested great thought in all the functions. They made sure that all the events reflected the spirit of their companionship and their personalities.

After wrapping the wedding festivities, Anushka and Virat will fly off to South Africa, where Virat will stay on for an upcoming series.

Anushka is scheduled to touch base in Mumbai after New Year celebrations, where she will resume her pending work commitments – a film with Aanand L. Rai, YRF’s Sui Dhaaga and the promotions of Pari.
