Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli and actress Anushka Sharma married on Monday in Tuscany, Italy, setting to rest a lot of speculation and conjecture.

Anushka and Virat made the news public at the same time, posting separate pictures from the wedding ceremony held at heritage hotel, Borgo Finocchieto.

Clearly, the groom beats the bride on numbers on social media but we are sure, the duo would not like the comparison and they wouldn't be bothered in terms of who wins the Insta and Twitter race.
