After making a stylish return to India on Wednesday morning, Anushka Sharma attended an event in Mumbai in the evening. During an interaction at the event, the actor opened up about her family life, sharing how she and her husband, star cricketer Virat Kohli, personally prepare meals for their children, Vamika and Akaay, so they can pass on their mothers’ recipes to the next generation. She also discussed her commitment to maintaining a routine for their kids.

Speaking at the event, Anushka said, “We had this discussion at home that if we don’t make the food our moms made at home, then we won’t be passing these recipes on to our kids. So, sometimes I cook, and sometimes my husband cooks, and we really try to replicate the way our mothers did. I cheat a little by calling my mom to ask for recipes, but it’s so important. It’s like you’re passing on something valuable to your children.”

She also revealed how she maintains a routine for her kids, despite their frequent travels as a family. “I am very particular about routine. We travel a lot as a family, and my kids experience many changes in their lives. So, by creating a routine for them, I am giving them a sense of control. Meal times are fixed—no matter where we are, we eat at the same time and sleep at the same time. It helps them regulate themselves much better,” she explained.
