Even before the birth of their child, Anushka Sharma had said in an interview with Vogue that she and Virat had decided to keep their baby away from the media glare. Anushka said that she doesn’t plan on raising a child in the public eye. “We definitely do not want to raise a child in the public eye— we don’t plan on engaging our child in social media. I think it’s a decision your child should be able to take. No kid should be made to be more special than the other. It’s hard enough for adults to deal with it. It’s going to be difficult, but we intend to follow through,” she had said.
