Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma have kept tabloids engaged with continuous rumors of the love birds’ engagement on New Year. The two are off to vacations in Uttrakhand, but their trip is surrounded by speculations that they might be taking their relationship to the next level.

While Anushka’s spokesperson has debunked the rumours of their engagement saying that this news is baseless and has no truth to it, many still thought that the lovebirds will get engaged on Januray 1 in the presence of their family and close friends. The news spread like wildfire when Amitabh Bachchan, Jaya Bachchan and industrialist Anil Ambani reached spa resort Ananda in the Himalayas near Rishikesh on Thursday, where Anushka and Virat are currently staying.

Reports also claimed that the hotel staff was asked to switch off their phones to prevent any leakage of information. In fact, in an interview with TOI the Tehri district superintendent of police NS Napalchiyal said that they have not been contacted for any additional security at the resort, and further added:

We have only come to know that the celebrities would be staying here and will leave after a few days.

Also, dismissing the reports of engagement, Anushka Sharma’s grandmother told TOI that she is not aware of any impending engagement yet, and said:

I like Virat and would be happy if the two decide to get married. Anushka had last come to visit me when her grandfather expired five years ago. I regularly go to Mumbai to meet her and we also talk on the phone. I had a word with Anushka’s father Ajay but he didn’t mention anything about an engagement.
