The Virushka wedding fever still has the nation in its grip. After an intimate wedding in Tuscany and a grand reception in Delhi, which was also attended by the likes of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the celebrations continue with a Mumbai reception in the Astor Ballroom of St. Regis.
While the Delhi reception was graced by Indian cricketers like Suresh Raina, Shikhar Dhawan and Gautam Gambhir, the Mumbai reception saw almost all the bigwigs of Bollywood and cricket. Among the early guests were Mahendra Singh Dhoni, Sunil Gavaskar and Virender Sehwag.
While most happily stopped to show-off their outfits, former Indian Cricket team captain MS Dhoni did not have the time for any photo-ops as he walked into the venue with his wife Sakshi.

The Mumbai reception saw Virat Kohli celebrate his wedding with his fellow team mates. While the wedding in Italy was a intimate affair, the cricketers were busy with the Sri Lankan T20 series on the day of the Delhi reception. With that series now wrapped up, members of the Indian cricket team turned up to celebrate with the new Mr and Mrs Kohli.
The Test team are all also in Mumbai as they depart for the tour of South Africa late on Wednesday evening. Virat Kohli is scheduled to hold a pre-departure press conference in Mumbai at 6pm on Wednesday. Reports suggest that Anushka will be traveling with him for the all-important tour.
