The two had not been spotted together for the last three months. Recognising Anushka's car, the paparaazi waited outside the restaurant to catch a glimpse of her, but were taken by surprise to see Virat in tow. The actress was accompanied by Leepakshi Ellawadi, stylist of her next film Sultan, while celebrity consultant Bunty Sajdeh was with Virat.

Says a source, "The two exit the restaurant just before midnight. Virat was in casual wear while Anushka was dressed to the nines. They got into their respective cars and zoomed off."
Adds the source, "Anushka made a pit stop at Salman Khan's Galaxy Apartments in Bandra. Kabir Khan was also present there. She left within 10 minutes and then visited Sohail Khan at his Pali Hill home."
So, does the dinner date signal that Virushka have kissed and made up? The star's spokersperson says, "Anushka would not like to talk about her personal life. So, no comments."
What or who brought about this rapprochement just a week before the first look of Sultan is unveiled. There are theories galore.
Salman connection
The couple was spotted with Bunty Sajdeh who handles Virat's endorsements and happens to be Sohail Khan's brother-in-law. Buzz is Salman Khan may have been instrumental in bringing the two face-to-face and putting their differences aside. Given that she had been shooting with Salman for the past several months, they developed a rapport, and Sallu wanted to be the peacemaker.
Rising to her rescue
The country's star batsman rose to Anushka's defence after Twitter trolls went berserk during the recent World T20 matches — an indication that he had not yet given up on his ladylove. After they were not spotted together since early this year, the two had even unfollowed each other on social media. Anushka preferred to immerse herself in work while Virat posted telling selfies on Instagram that depicted his mood for the time. However, he seemed to have won over Anushka once again after he silenced the online trolls (Read More).
Playing big brother
It is said that Anushka's brother, Karnesh, hit it off with Virat when his sister started dating him. The two remained buddies even after the two drifted apart. Speculation is rife that Karnesh could have played a role in their reunion.
