Fans Fume At Broadcaster For Revealing Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli’s Daughter’s Face.

The South African broadcaster, Supersport was target of fan fury after the official broadcaster of the match panned the camera to the stands showing Anushka Sharma and Vamika cheering for Virat Kohli, during the final ODI, revealing the couple’s daughter’s face.

Given that Virat and Anushka have been fiercely protective of Vamika’s privacy, fans were livid at what they saw as breach of privacy.

During Sunday’s game, the live telecast showed Anushka in the stands with a clear view of baby Vamika in her arms. The camera lingered on them for a few seconds before the feed cut back to the ground.

“The broadcaster should have respected their privacy,” read a tweet while another added, “It was so wrong of SuperSport to show Vamika’s face especially when Virat and Anushka had specifically asked not to do so.” Another person tweeted: “Well, honestly it was a terrible thing for them to do, by not respecting the privacy they needed!”

Pretty soon, some netizens began posting the video and screengrabs on social media, which too was criticised by fans. Reacting to one of the viral tweets, one fan wrote, “Delete it bro. Kohli and Anushka didn’t want to share any of her pics online which showed her face”. Another added, “If you respect Kohli and Anushka, delete it.” Many fans even urged others to report the said tweets and tagged official accounts to delete it.

Fans’ reactions on videos and pictures of Vamika’s face circulating on social media.

Virat and Anushka have never revealed Vamika’s face in any of their pictures since her birth a little over a year ago. They have requested the paparazzi to not click her photos, something that they have adhered to as well.

Kohli Issues Statement.

Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma have asked for pictures of their daughter from the broadcast footage of Sunday’s third ODI between India and South Africa to not be used.

“Hi guys! We realise that our daughters images were captured at the stadium yesterday and widely shared thereafter. We want to inform everyone that we were caught off guard and didn’t know that the camera was on us. Our stance and request on the matter stays the same. We would really appreciate if Vamika’s images are not clicked/published for reasons we have explained earlier. Thank you,” Kohli and Anushka said in a statement that they posted in their Instagram story.
