'Virat ne Sakshi bhabhi ko approach..': Netizens react to viral photo of Anushka Sharma and MS Dhoni's wife Sakshi

It is no secret that Anushka Sharma had known cricketer Mahendra Singh Dhoni’s wife Sakshi Dhoni way before she became a public figure. As Dhoni-led Chennai Super Kings lifted the IPL cup for the 5th time, an old picture of Anushka with Sakshi resurfaced on social media. Soon after, a section of people on social media were amazed to know the interesting revelation and dropped their reactions.

The picture showed little Anushka and Sakshi posing along with other students seemingly for a fancy dress competition at school. While the other photo features the two partying with their friends. For the unversed, Anushka’s father Colonel(Retd.) Ajay Kumar Sharma was in the Indian Army and he was posted in Assam for a brief period of time. That is when the actress went to St Mary’s School of which Sakshi is also an alumna. Both of them were classmates in the St Mary's School, Margherita, in Assam. Anushka is married to cricketer Virat Kohli who leads the IPL’s Royal Challengers Banglore team.

Earlier in 2013, Anushka had spoken about reuniting with Sakshi. "Sakshi and I lived together in a very small town in Assam. When she told me where she lived, I said wow, I have lived here too! She said I went to this school, I said I went to this school too," she had said. Meanwhile, workwise, Anushka was last seen in a cameo appearance in Tripti Dimri and Babil Khan starrer Qala. She will next be seen in a sports drama Chakda Express, which is based on the life of cricketer Jhulan Goswami.
