FACT CHECK
NewsMobile fact-checked the images and found them to be AI-generated.
A Reverse Image Search found no credible sources, media reports, or real-life references associated with these pictures. Moreover, neither Virat nor Anushka has posted or acknowledged these images on their official social media accounts—raising further doubts about their authenticity.
Upon closer inspection, several hallmarks of AI manipulation become evident—unnatural facial expressions, inconsistent lighting, awkward texture blending in the background, and subtle distortions, especially around the faces.
To verify further, we ran the images through Hive Moderation, an AI detection tool, which confirmed that the visuals were artificially generated.
In conclusion, the viral images of Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma are AI-generated fabrications and have no basis in reality.
