Shatrughan Sinha ’s take on Sonakshi Sinha’s wedding
Sonakshi’s father and veteran actor Shatrughan Sinha had earlier addressed questions surrounding his daughter’s marriage to Zaheer Iqbal, including discussions around their different religious backgrounds. Speaking to News18, he said, “Bilkul thik thaak hai. Hum bahot khush hai. Sonakshi ki jo shaadi hui hai, made for each other lagte hai dono. Zaheer, unka jo husband hai, aur Sonakshi, they look absolutely made for each other.” (Everything is completely fine. We are very happy. Sonakshi’s marriage that took place, they look made for each other, both of them. Zaheer, her husband, and Sonakshi, they look absolutely made for each other.)He further added, “Sabsi badi aur sabse ahem baat yeh hai, humne jo kuch bhi kiya hai, koi gair kaanoni kaam nahi kiya hai, aur samvidhan ke khilaaf nahi kiya hai. Bachche jawan hai, bachche adults hai. Agar woh khush hai, toh miya-biwi raazi toh kya karega Qaazi. Hume unka saath dena chahiye. Wholeheartedly, chattaan ki tarah unke saath hoon.” (The biggest and most important point is that whatever we have done, we haven’t done anything illegal, nor have we gone against the Constitution. The kids are grown up; the kids are adults. If they are happy, then when the bride and groom are willing, what can the priest even do? We should support them. Wholeheartedly, I stand with them like a rock.)
