Cheesy, peesy and totally adorable: Virat and Anushka’s romantic Dubai ad goes viral

India’s star batter Virat Kohli and his wife, actor Anushka Sharma, are melting hearts with their latest joint appearance in a dreamy new campaign for Dubai Tourism, which has been doing the rounds on social media and has gone viral.
The couple, lovingly dubbed Virushka, star in “Dubai, Ready For a Surprise”, a playful, romantic promo that shows the celebrity couple exploring the city’s hidden gems and iconic hotspots in what fans are calling “a rom-com come to life.”
Romance, Reels and Viral Chemistry
The video opens in classic cricket fashion — with a coin toss. Virat flips, Anushka calls it right. “Let’s start with the pool… but a pool with a view,” she smiles.
Cut to the couple lounging poolside in true vacation mode. After a fellow guest compliments the scenery, Anushka turns the charm up and quips, “My favourite view? Him,” pointing to Virat.
What follows is a whirlwind Dubai escapade, sunlit lunches, parasailing thrills, and a dreamy dinner under the desert stars by a crackling bonfire.
But the real spark? Their chemistry.
At one point, Anushka gazes at Virat and says, “How are you so amazing?”
He flashes that signature grin: “What can I say? I learned from the best.”
She calls it “cheesy.”
He doubles down: “Peesy.”
And just like that, they’ve won the internet again, one romantic reel at a time.
A Flirty Desert Date and Burj Khalifa’s Aww’ Moment
One of the most talked-about moments in the reel unfolds under the shimmering glow of the Burj Khalifa. While taking a break to enjoy a spot, Virat spots a couple nearby and quips, “Cute couple.”
Anushka, ever the sceptic, replies, “Maybe they’re just friends?”
Not missing a beat, Virat smiles, “They’re on a date. Look, he’s nervous. I used to be, too.”
Anushka grins and challenges him: “Let’s take a bet. If they’re a couple, the next trip’s on me.”
Moments later, the camera cuts to the man getting down on one knee, a full-on proposal right there.
Anushka gasps and lets out a warm, “Aww,” as the surprise unfolds.
Guess who lost the bet? Virat wins and cheekily picks Dubai for their next getaway. Because, of course, he just loves the place.
What Fans said
Social media exploded as soon as the ad dropped. Comments flooded in, calling it:
- “A mini love story in 60 seconds.”
- “Dubai’s best campaign ever, thanks to Virushka’s magic.”

Pictures from the shoot have already gone viral, with fans praising the couple for being effortlessly real and refreshingly fun.
From Desert Nights to Date Nights
Whether strolling barefoot on the beach, sipping coffee in chic cafes, or sharing laughs in a dune buggy, Virat and Anushka make Dubai look like the ultimate couple’s playground and prove once again why they remain Bollywood’s most beloved pair.
