Anushka Sharma opens up about his sleep schedule with daughter Vamika and says her sleep schedule with little one is fixed
Anushka Sharma, a popular Bollywood actress and wife of cricketer Virat Kohli, recently opened up about her family’s dinner habits and her approach to parenting their children, Vamika and Akaay Kohli. During a promotional event for Slurrp Farm, she discussed her decision to adopt an early dinner schedule, explaining how it has benefited her family and contributed to their well-being.
Anushka shared that the routine of having dinner at 5:30 PM initially started out of convenience. Her daughter, Vamika, would often want her dinner early, around the same time. Anushka, usually alone with Vamika in the evenings, decided to join her for dinner rather than eat later. This simple choice became a daily habit. “It started out as convenience because my daughter would want her dinner early. She would eat it around 5.30, and most of the time it would be me and her home alone. So, I’d think, what am I going to do now, might as well eat with her,” Anushka explained. Over time, this routine brought multiple benefits for the family, including better sleep and improved mental clarity. She noticed that she slept better and woke up feeling refreshed, with reduced brain fog, and that the routine positively impacted her overall health.
What began as a practical decision has now become a family ritual, with even her husband, Virat Kohli, joining in. “It was out of convenience, but it’s now something that the entire family does,” she noted. Coming from an Army family, Anushka grew up with strong discipline and values, which she hopes to instill in her children as well. She recounted how her parents approached mealtimes with calm authority, sharing an example from her childhood: “If we were being finicky at the table and didn’t want to eat something, our father wouldn’t shout at us. He’d just say, ‘Sure, you can leave. But when you’re hungry, that’s what you’re going to eat.’ These things are important because they teach us to value what our parents did for us.”
