Anushka Sharma shares emotional IPL victory moments as RCB receives hero's welcome in Bengaluru after first-ever championship

"These happy faces have waited for this very lovingly and patiently - Anushka Sharma"

Bengaluru, June 4

It's celebration time for the fans of Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) as the team in red clinched its maiden IPL title in 18 years on Tuesday night at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.

The city of Bengaluru accorded a grand welcome to RCB players upon their arrival on Wednesday afternoon. A sea of fans flocked to the streets to catch a glimpse of the winning team.

RCB star batter Virat Kohli's wife and actor Anushka Sharma took to Instagram to show how people in Bengaluru welcomed them with smiles and nonstop claps.

In the clip, Kohli beams joyfully upon seeing the huge crowd. He holds the trophy close as the team makes its way to the event venue in a bus.

"Namma Bengaluru current scenes," Anushka captioned the post.

In another video, Anushka turned the camera towards the road, where hundreds of people can be seen standing on the road to welcome the winners.

In her post, she expressed her gratitude to the fans for their unwavering support for the team.

" These happy faces have waited for this very lovingly and patiently," Anushka wrote.

Last night, Kohli became emotional after the final delivery confirmed RCB's victory against Punjab Kings. With tears in his eyes, he ran straight to the boundary ropes to embrace Anushka.

Anushka lovingly consoled her emotional husband. She gave him a peck on his cheek. Virat also planted a sweet kiss on her forehead.

Anushka had watched the entire final match from the stands and was seen jumping with joy as RCB registered a marvellous victory against Punjab Kings.

The couple, who are affectionately referred to as "Virushka" by their fans, literally sealed this special win with their love and warmth.

While the celebrations are great, I hope the authorities managed crowd control properly. Last time there was stampede risk during such events. Safety should be priority along with celebrations.

The Virushka moments melted my heart! ❤️ After all the trolling Anushka faced over the years, this victory is so sweet. She's been his rock through thick and thin. True couple goals!

As a Chennai fan, I must admit RCB deserved this win. Kohli's dedication is inspiring - from being called 'finished' to lifting the trophy. But next year, yellow will be back! 😉

While I'm happy for RCB, I hope the same enthusiasm is shown for our national team performances too. IPL is great, but nothing beats watching India win international tournaments!
