Anushka Sharma took to Instagram recently to drop a cryptic note about how different versions of ourselves can exist in the minds of others. She wrote that while we might have an image of ourselves, our family or co-workers might perceive us differently. Anushka wrote that everyone we meet might have a different understanding of who we are.

Anushka Sharma wrote on Instagram, “A different version of you exists in the minds of everyone who knows you. The person you think of as ‘yourself’ only exists for you, and even you don’t really know who that is. Every person you meet, have a relationship with, or make eye contact on the street with, creates a version of ‘you’ in their heads."

She added, “You’re not the same person to your mom, your dad, your siblings than you are to your co-workers, your neighbors or your friends. There are a thousand different versions of yourself out there, in people’s minds. A ‘you’ exists in each version and yet your ‘you’, ‘yourself’ isn’t really a ‘someone’ at all."

The post comes soon after Virat Kohli’s interview in Bangalore, where he expressed his disappointment with the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI)’s recent diktat limiting how much time men’s cricketers’ families can spend with them on international tours. He felt that these rules are being brought on by people who don’t understand what the presence of families means to the players, saying that ‘maybe’ such rule-makers ‘need to be kept away’.

“It is very difficult to explain to people how grounding it is to come back to your family every time you have something intense happening on the outside," Virat Kohli said at the Royal Challengers Bengaluru’s Innovation Lab Indian Sports Summit. “I don’t think people have an understanding of what value it brings. I feel quite disappointed about that. People who have no control over what is going on are kind of brought into conversations and put out in the forefront. Maybe they need to be kept away," Kohli, who has often been accompanied by his wife, actress Anushka Sharma, and their kids on tours, added.
