Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli’s son, Akaay will hold a British citizenship?

Well, ever since Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli announced the birth of their son, Akaay, speculations have been rife that the baby boy will hold a British citizenship, since he was born in London. And now, a report by Sports Tak has clarified that Akaay won’t actually be eligible to hold a British citizenship, even though he was reportedly born in London. As per their law, no child born in the United Kingdom can automatically get a citizenship of that country, and it can only be possible if either one of his parents is a British citizen by birth, or has acquired it by residing in the country for quite a long time.

Moreover, the report also added that while Akaay’s passport will be issued in UK, but he would still be considered an Indian citizen. However, Virat and Anushka’s son can only become a British citizen if he manages to reside in UK until he turned 10 years old. At that time, the celeb parents can easily apply for their son’s British citizenship and passport.
