That viral clip of him strolling with Anushka? He looked relaxed, not troubled—maybe a bit annoyed at the fan filming without asking, but that’s it. Fans are freaking out over nothing; Kohli’s just embracing the quiet life post-Test retirement. My take? He’s earned it after carrying Indian cricket for years. Let’s not spin this into some drama."
