Cricket star Virat Kohli and actor Anushka Sharma attended a live kirtan concert led by American musician Krishna Das in Mumbai on October 26, 2026, joining regular devotees on the floor to chant bhajans ahead of India’s upcoming ODI series against New Zealand.
Stepping away from international cricket and commercial spotlights, the prominent couple chose a simple evening of spiritual music in Mumbai on October 26, 2026.
Without bodyguards or VIP protocols, the pair settled onto floor-level seating in the front row among ordinary devotees to listen to the American kirtan artist.
Devotees Sing Together at Mumbai Kirtan
Sharma clapped along to the rhythm and chanted Radhe Govinda with a bright smile as Das led the gathering from the stage. Seated right beside her, Kohli closed his eyes in a composed demeanor, wearing a casual black T-shirt while completely absorbed in the devotional atmosphere.
Social media videos captured the pair fully immersed in the spiritual gathering, clapping and reciting holy mantras. Before arriving at the venue, the couple was also spotted visiting Mumbai’s Gateway of India according to regional coverage.
Opting for a life outside public view when abroad, the duo has made London their primary residence alongside their children, Vamika and Akaay. Having previously requested that media outlets and photographers avoid capturing images of their children at airports, the family balances private parenting with public spiritual visits whenever returning to India.
Simple Attire Catches Attention
Sharma wore a mulberry-colored plain unstitched Anarkali suit from the brand Place the Dot
known as the Ghoomar Anarkali Mulberry Set. The outfit, priced at approximately 10,900 rupees, featured no heavy embroidery or zari patchwork, making it a comfortable choice for a quiet evening of satsang.
With minimal makeup, open hair, and a small black bindi adorning her forehead, the actor paired the ensemble with a matching mulberry dupatta. Fashion and entertainment observers noted that the unpretentious styling matched the spiritual tone of the event.
American Musician Leads the Tradition
Krishna Das is an American devotional singer and composer who first traveled to India in 1970 before becoming a close disciple of Neem Karoli Baba and spending years living in ashrams across Uttarakhand, including Kainchi Dham. He is widely recognized for fusing traditional Indian bhajans with Western musical elements.
This appearance follows a pattern of spiritual exploration for Kohli and Sharma, who are dedicated devotees of Neem Karoli Baba. The couple previously attended a Krishna Das event at London’s Union Chapel in July 2026 and regularly visit Swami Premanand Ji Maharaj’s ashram in Vrindavan whenever their schedules permit.
