Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma broke the internet after they announced the arrival of their second baby. In their note, they revealed that the actress gave birth to her son on February 15 and that they have named him Akaay. Although the newest parents in town decided to keep their location under wraps. But, soon after the news of junior Kohli’s arrival, a fan page shared a picture of the Indian cricketer walking on the streets of London.

Taking to their X handle, a fan page with the name Satish Mishra shared a picture of Virat Kohli. In the picture, we can see the Indian cricketer walking on the streets of London late in the evening. He has an intense look on his face and can be seen wearing a black colored long jacket over white pants. He has completed his look with a cap and his glasses. We wonder if he is heading to be with Anushka Sharma and his newborn.

Just a couple of days back there were strong rumors about Anushka Sharma going to deliver at a hospital in London. And now after this picture of the cricketer, it may be possible that the couple may have welcomed a son at a hospital in London.

What is the meaning of Virat Kohli-Anushka Sharma's son Akaay?

The selection of the name Akaay for Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli’s baby boy hints at a Turkish origin. Beyond its roots, the name boasts a gender-neutral significance, symbolizing the radiant brilliance and luminous glow akin to that of a full moon, or directly translating to full moon itself.

Interestingly, it may hold another meaning as well. Akaay derives from the Hindi word kaya, meaning body, thus suggesting someone who is greater than physical existence. In Sanskrit, Akaay denotes someone without a body, incorporeal in nature.

Previously, Kohli unveiled the meaning behind his daughter's name, Vamika, sharing that it originates from Sanskrit and is another appellation for Goddess Durga. This association infuses her name with a sacred significance.
