The couple, who have always charmed fans with their effortless romance, are now showcasing the city’s magic through a film that celebrates their love story — complete with playful banter and candid confessions.
Virat and Anushka’s Chemistry Takes Centerstage
In the ad film created by Dubai’s Department of Economy and Tourism, Virat and Anushka are seen lounging by a cozy bonfire, enjoying a romantic evening in the vibrant city. Their candid conversation reveals an endearing dynamic between the couple. Anushka playfully asks, “How are you so amazing?” — to which Virat cheekily responds, “What can I say, I’ve learnt from the best.” This prompts Anushka to blush and declare his answer “cheesy,” to which Virat doubles down with a playful “peesy.”
Fans couldn’t help but swoon over this authentic and affectionate exchange, praising the couple’s chemistry and Virat’s playful sense of humor.
The Waterfront Scene: A Sweet Exchange
In another heartwarming scene, Virat and Anushka stand at a picturesque Dubai waterfront spot, soaking in the city’s sights. When they notice another couple nearby, Virat affectionately remarks, “Cute couple!” Anushka, ever the curious observer, wonders if they might just be friends — but Virat confidently assures her they’re definitely a couple.
Virat then adds, “They are on a date… see, he is nervous. Even I used to be,” making Anushka go “aww.” This simple yet relatable moment resonated with fans, sparking praise for the natural, unscripted feel of their conversation.
Fans React: ‘Virat is a Natural!’
The video quickly went viral on social media, with fans praising Virat’s surprisingly impressive acting skills. One fan commented, “When did Virat get so good at acting? He surely can replace newbies in Bollywood!” Another wrote, “VK is a natural. He should try some acting gigs after retirement.”
A few netizens even suggested that Virat might outshine his wife on-screen, with one saying, “Unpopular opinion but I feel that even Virat is a better actor than Anushka.” Another user expressed admiration for Anushka’s candid expressions: “Virat is terrific! But I love how Anushka blushes. I have always loved it. It’s so natural and spontaneous. I am sure having Virat as the ‘co-star’ helps.”
Swirling Rumors About Their Relocation
The ad film also reignited speculation about the couple’s rumored move abroad. Some fans wondered whether the Dubai ad hints at a potential relocation: “So they are not moving to UK but Dubai,” one wrote. Another added, “I was thinking they were gonna to UK.”
The ‘Dubai, Ready For a Surprise’ Campaign
Virat and Anushka’s collaboration with Dubai Tourism is part of the ‘Dubai, Ready For a Surprise’ campaign, aimed at highlighting the city’s diverse offerings — from culinary delights to thrilling adventures and luxurious getaways.
In a statement, Virat shared his fondness for the city:
“Dubai holds a special place for Anushka and me. The moment we land, everything — from the flavors to the energy — feels just right. Even my favorite chole bhature tastes just as good here! But what amazes us is how the city feels familiar yet always has something new to offer. Whether it’s adventure, peaceful moments in the dunes, or just vibing to the perfect playlist on the beach, there’s always something for everyone.”
Anushka echoed his sentiments, adding:
“Every visit to Dubai feels like a new discovery. Whether it’s for work or to be with friends, the city surprises you in the best ways. It is a warm city, extremely comforting yet very exciting, and there is always something new to explore. From thrilling adventures to unexpected moments, Dubai has a way of matching every mood and every need.”
A Love Story That Keeps on Giving
Virat and Anushka’s love story has captivated fans since their marriage in 2017. After dating for several years, the couple tied the knot in an intimate ceremony in Italy. They welcomed their daughter Vamika on January 11, 2021, and their son Akaay on February 15, 2024.
This latest ad film once again highlights their effortless charm and their ability to turn even a commercial into a moment of genuine connection. With their signature chemistry and candid exchanges, it’s no wonder fans are showering the couple with love — and calling for Virat to pursue an acting career after cricket!
