Uthishta Kumar, a baker from Bengaluru, had a memorable request earlier this year when Virat Kohli asked her to bake a cake for his wife, Anushka Sharma’s birthday. Celebrating her eighth anniversary as a baker, Uthishta took to Instagram to share the delightful story of baking for the celebrity couple.
She posted a picture with Kohli and Anushka, along with a photo of the classic chocolate cake she crafted for the Bollywood star’s special day. It was her specialty, and she believed that such a significant occasion deserved the classic chocolate cake to make it truly special.
Here’s what Uthishta wrote in the caption of her post:
“When Virat Kohli approached me to bake a cake for Anushka Sharma’s birthday, I knew I had to create something special! Nothing quite like a classic chocolate cake for a birthday celebration!”
She further elaborated:
“From baking in my mum’s oven over the weekends to making a cake for one of the most accomplished sportsmen of our era, it’s been an amazing journey over the last eight years! Here’s to many more years of baking special cakes for all my wonderful customers! ❤️”
Kohli has often expressed how significant Anushka is in his life and his transformation as a person. It’s no surprise he wanted to make her birthday extra special.
Virat Kohli Dedicates T20 World Cup Win to Anushka Sharma
Just a day after India’s T20 World Cup triumph, Virat Kohli took to Instagram to dedicate his success to Anushka Sharma. He expressed his deep gratitude for her unwavering support during all times. Here’s what he wrote:
“None of this would remotely be possible without you, my love. You keep me humble, grounded, and you always say it how it is with absolute honesty. I couldn’t be more grateful for you. This victory is as much yours as it’s mine. Thank you and I love you for being YOU ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ @anushkasharma”
Despite a challenging T20 World Cup campaign where he managed just 75 runs in his first six innings, Kohli rose to the occasion in the final, winning the Player of the Match award for his crucial knock of 76. India clinched the title by defeating South Africa by seven runs.
This story of a simple cake request intertwining with significant personal and professional milestones highlights the warmth and depth of Virat and Anushka’s relationship, and the heartfelt journey of a dedicated baker.
