Hindustan Unilever has rolled out a film for its flagship soap brand, Lux, featuring celebrity couple Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma, who are fondly known as 'Virushka'.
The film opens with Sharma bathing with Lux. Once she's out and ready, her glow leaves Kohli stumped who sings the famous Mohammed Rafi track 'Chand Sa Roshan Chehra' for her. The duo dance to the track together.
The film was published on YouTube on 30 July and has been conceptualised by Contract Advertising.
