Sonakshi Sinha and her longtime boyfriend Zaheer Iqbal tied the knot on June 23 2024, and the newlyweds have been making headlines ever since then. While the duo’s romance is grabbing eyeballs, Zaheer’s parents have reacted to their beautiful journey together. In a recent interview with Galatta India, the newlyweds shared about their dating period, marriage and shared interest.
During the chat, the interviewer shared a message from Zaheer's parents and Sonakshi Sinha was deeply moved by it. Sonakshi’s parents-in-law stated that they are happy and blessed to have her as their daughter now. They expressed that they are happy to see the two of them happy, and added that Sonakshi has a heart of ‘asli sona’, a golden heart.
They also said that Sonakshi has given them ‘so much love and respect’, and they cannot think of anyone better for Zaheer. Meanwhile, in a recent interview with ETimes, Zaheer opened up about his love story with Sonakshi Sinha. “The first time we met was at Salman bhai’s (Salman Khan) house.
And strangely, we were both present at Salman bhai’s birthday parties (at his farm and Mumbai home, Galaxy) several times since 2013, but our paths never crossed. I didn’t know she was there, and she didn’t know that I existed. Then finally, we met at Galaxy one evening, when a few of us just chilled together, and that was our first interaction.
But the first time we really spent a lot of time with each other was on June 23, 2017 (hence, we chose that date for our wedding ). There was a screening of Tubelight and an afterparty, where we ended up spending five hours together. We kept chatting, and suddenly, we turned around and we were like.
..where did everyone else go? We knew that day there was something special here,” he said.
