Congratulatory messages poured in from all corners since both Kohli and Anushka posted messages on Twitter which read:

“Today we have promised each other to be bound in love for ever. We are truly blessed to share the news with you.This beautiful day will be made more special with the love and support of our family of fans & well wishers. Thank you for being such an important part of our journey.”
