The couple Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma welcomed their second kid, Akaay, on February 15, according to recent announcements. Many people were curious as to whether Akaay would be a British citizen or keep his Indian citizenship after his birth in a London hospital, which prompted conversations concerning his citizenship.
According to Sports Tak, Akaay is not immediately a British citizen, contrary to expectations. Being born in the United Kingdom does not confer citizenship by default, according to the regulations. Either parent must be a citizen of the United Kingdom or have settled status as a result of long-term residency for the child to be eligible. Similarly, a parent’s citizenship status determines whether a child born outside the UK to British parents can also acquire British citizenship.
Even though Akaay was born in London and both of his parents own property there, he does not qualify for British citizenship. Although Akaay will hold a passport from the United Kingdom, his citizenship status as an Indian citizen will remain unchanged.
In 2017, Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli were married in a religious ceremony. They had their first kid, a girl named Vamika, in January of 2021, and another son, a boy named Akaay, in 2024.
