However, according to Indian media reports, Virat and Anushka have given a very unique name to their baby girl. The star couple has named their daughter “ANVI”.
A source has revealed to the entertainment portal that they have entered their daughter’s name as Anvi in the hospital register. While an official announcement about the same is still awaited.
Sports stars like badminton player Saina Nehwal and English international cricketer Alexandra Hartley, and Bookworm founder Manish Sharma were one of the first few personalities to wish the new parents.
The power couple also featured among the Top 25 Global Instagram Influencers in a list, which ranks 1000 top Instagram accounts by the quality of the audience and the authentic engagement that they can drive to create awareness, released at the end of last year.
