Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli recently spoke about how his wife, Bollywood actress Anushka Sharma’s motherhood journey has inspired and empowered him. In an interview, Kohli opened up about how witnessing the strength and resilience of a new mother has given him a new perspective on life and success.
Kohli and Sharma welcomed their first child, a daughter named Vamika, in January of this year. Since then, the couple has been open about their experiences as new parents and the challenges and joys of raising a child.
In the interview, Kohli spoke about how watching Sharma embrace motherhood has given him a newfound appreciation for the strength and resilience of women. He said, “Watching Anushka go through her journey of pregnancy and now motherhood, it’s just been so inspiring. To see a woman be so strong and so committed to something, it just gives you a different perspective on life.”
Kohli also spoke about how he has learned to prioritize what is truly important in life, thanks to Sharma’s influence. He said, “When you see a new life come into this world and see the kind of effort and commitment that it takes to raise a child, it just puts everything else into perspective. It helps you focus on what really matters and what really brings you joy.”
The couple has been vocal about their decision to prioritize family life over their careers, with both Kohli and Sharma taking breaks from work to focus on their roles as parents. Kohli spoke about how becoming a father has changed his priorities and given him a new perspective on success.
He said, “For me, success has always been about being the best I can be on the cricket field. But now, with Vamika in our lives, success means being the best father and husband I can be. It’s about creating a loving and nurturing environment for our daughter, and that’s what really matters to me.”
Kohli’s words reflect a growing trend in society, as more and more men are recognizing the importance of being actively involved in parenting and family life. This shift towards more equal parenting roles is not only beneficial for children, but also for the parents themselves, as they learn to balance work and family life in a more meaningful way.
Kohli and Sharma’s experiences as new parents have also shone a light on the challenges that many new parents face, including sleepless nights, the pressure to balance work and family, and the need to prioritize self-care in order to be the best parents possible.
In the interview, Kohli spoke about how he and Sharma have been supporting each other through these challenges, saying, “We’re a team, and we support each other through everything. We’re learning as we go, but we’re in this together, and that’s what matters.”
Kohli’s words are a testament to the power of partnership and support in achieving success, both on and off the field. By sharing his experiences as a new father and the ways in which his wife’s motherhood journey has empowered him, Kohli has provided a message of hope and inspiration to parents everywhere.
In a world where success is often measured by material wealth and professional achievements, Kohli’s words serve as a reminder that true success lies in the relationships we build and the love we give and receive from our families.
As Kohli and Sharma continue on their journey as new parents, their experiences and insights will no doubt continue to inspire and empower others to prioritize the things that really matter in life: love, family, and the strength that comes from supporting each other through life’s ups and downs.
