Bhawna Kohli Shuts Down Troll Over Her Bond With Virat And Anushka Sharma: “Love Doesn’t Need Validation”
As Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) finally lifted their maiden IPL 2025 trophy, it wasn’t just the cricketers celebrating — family members, fans, and celebrities joined in the emotional moment. Among them was Virat Kohli’s sister, Bhawna Kohli Dhingra, who shared a heartfelt Instagram post for her brother. But when a troll tried to dampen the moment by questioning her bond with Virat and Anushka Sharma, Bhawna had the perfect response — one that radiated grace and maturity.
Bhawna’s Emotional Tribute
On Instagram, Bhawna posted pictures of Virat and Anushka during the celebrations and penned a powerful caption:
“This night, this moment…we cried with you because you, my little Veeru, are God’s chosen one who brings so much joy and inspiration…”
Her words moved many, reflecting the pride and love the Kohli family shares. But amidst the flood of supportive comments, one user snidely remarked:
“Why does he never mention you in any speech or even like your post? Not even Anushka does. Lol.”
A Classy Clapback
Bhawna didn’t ignore the comment — she addressed it with calm dignity:
“May God give you the patience to understand love can exist in many ways, which is not necessarily shown to the world, but it’s still there… Hope you have enough love in your life, no insecurities, only true bonds which don’t need any validation. God bless you.”
Her response has since been widely praised as a masterclass in shutting down negativity without stooping to its level.
The Kohli-Sharma Family: Private Yet Powerful
Virat and Anushka, married since 2017, are known for fiercely guarding their private life. The couple, who are parents to Vamika (born in 2021) and Akaay (born February 15, 2024), rarely post about family on social media or engage in public displays of affection beyond carefully chosen moments.
Even during RCB’s historic IPL win, Virat’s emotional tribute to Anushka was broadcast on-air, not on his Instagram. He said:
“You can’t explain in words what this means… I dedicate this win to my wife, who’s been my biggest strength.”
Joy Tainted by Tragedy
Following the trophy celebrations in Bengaluru, joy turned to grief as a stampede incident during the fan celebrations claimed 11 lives and left 33 injured. The Kohli-Sharma family returned to Mumbai shortly after, skipping additional public festivities out of respect.
Final Word
Bhawna’s response is a reminder that family bonds aren’t always visible online. In an age where likes and mentions are seen as currency, her words served a much-needed dose of perspective:
“True love doesn’t need validation. It just exists.”
