The Instagram handle of Bengaluru's Shri Sagar Central Tiffin Room restaurant also posted pictures of the couple with the staff. "Look who joined us today! It was great pleasure having the legendary Virat Kohli and the beautiful Anushka Sharma visit us with their family. Your words and wishes have raised our spirits and made our day! Looking forward to having you again," the caption of the post read.
The couple were seen across Bengaluru a day ahead of RCB's match against Rajasthan Royals at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium. In the match, RCB is sporting the green jersey made from recycled stadium waste. It is an initiative that the franchise has undertaken since the 2011 season in order to spread awareness for a cleaner and greener environment.
"As part of our year-long commitment, we will enable and encourage sustainability for the people, of the people, and by the people through a unique fan-driven model of carbon neutrality and rejuvenating and restoring the city lakes which were once the pride of Bangalore city," said Rajesh Menon, VP & Head of Royal Challengers Bangalore.
