Team India cricketer Virat Kohli and actress Anushka Sharma on late Tuesday night announced that they have been blessed with a baby boy. Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma in their joint statement appealed to their fans to give them privacy and revealed that they have named their son Akaay. While Virat & Anushka did not share their son Akaay's photo, a profile with the same name debuted on X thanking his 'mom & dad'. The profile was named Akay Kohli and it fired its first tweet saying, 'Thank You Dad Virat Kohli & Mom Anushka Sharma For Giving Me Birth'.
Akay Kohli's X profile and tweet indeed puzzled the fans on social media. However, they soon realised that Akay Kohli's X profile was fake. As a result, fans started to give hilarious response.
A user wrote, "Akaay!!!! u have double "a" in your name as your father and mom said"
In response, Akay wrote, "They are wrong i know my real name"
One more user wrote, "Stop it bro."
Another user wrote, "Shakal dikha shakal!! (Show your face)"
What does Akaay mean?
As per reports, the name "Akaay" is of Turkish origin. It carries a gender-neutral meaning, signifying "Shining Moon." The precise meaning of Akaay is the illuminating light of a full moon. This new addition to their family comes after the birth of their first child, Vamika, in 2021. Anushka Sharma had previously shared an emotional Instagram post, introducing Vamika to the world and expressing profound gratitude for the experience of motherhood.
