There are rumours that Bollywood actress Sonakshi Sinha is getting married to her boyfriend Zaheer Iqbal next on June 23.
Their rumoured wedding is likely to take place at a ‘SoBo hotspot’ but what has her family said about it? Well, the actor’s father Shatrughan Sinha broke his silence on the matter and “I only know what I’ve read in the news.”
Shatrughan stated that he and his wife Poonam are ready to bless the couple as soon as Sonakshi informs them about her wedding plans, adding, “We wish her all happiness always.”
During an appearance on The Great Indian Kapil Show, Sonakshi expressed her eagerness to get married.
However, the actor-politician admitted feeling disappointed about being out of the loop regarding his daughter’s apparent wedding and confessed that those close to him are asking why he does not know about her wedding plans while the media seems to know more.
“All I can say is, nowadays, children don’t seek permission; they simply inform their parents,” Shatrughan said by adding, “We are waiting to be informed.”
Sonakshi and Zaheer are rumoured to have been in a relationship since 2020, however, they have never confirmed or denied it. In 2022, Zaheer appeared to make their relationship public when he wished Sonakshi a happy birthday.
