Well, Anushka Sharma did not take long to accept her husband, Virat Kohli’s fitness challenge. Hours after the India skipper challenged his wife; she posted a video of her lifting weights on her Twitter handle.

It all began when Union Minister, Rajyavardhan Singh Rathore choosing Kohli along with Hrithik Roshan and Sania Nehwal to join in the #FitnessChallenge. One of the fittest cricketers in the world, Kohli did not take long to accept the challenge. He posted a video of himself doing his favourite exercise – the spider planks, as he joined the fitness movement.

The 29-year old not only accepted the challenged but also challenged another three people, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi, teammate MS Dhoni and his wife, Anushka Sharma to follow his lead.

Anushka soon accepted the, as she too joined the fitness movement. The actress shared the video of her favourite workout. She also challenged squash star player, Dipika Pallikal and Bollywood actor, Varun Dhawan as she tweeted:

I accept your challenge @imVKohli. Here’s my video for the #HumFitTohIndiaFit #FitnessChallenge. I’d like to nominate my friends, @DipikaPallikal and @Varun_dvn Great initiative @Ra_THORe, sir! #ComeOutAndPlay

Meanwhile, Kohli is currently preparing for the upcoming tour of England. The India skipper’s county stint with Surrey got cancelled because of an injury he sustained during the IPL. The 29-year old will be keen to regain his fitness and lead India from the front again.

India’s last two tours of England were an absolute nightmare. They had lost 4-0 in 2011 and 3-1 in 2014. Kohli too had a forgettable outing in 2014 when he had scored at an average of less than 14. He has come a long way since then and will be keen to do well.
