Sonakshi Sinha is all set to marry her longtime boyfriend Zaheer Iqbal. A leaked wedding invite confirmed the news and revealed that Sonakshi has been dating Zaheer for seven years. Amid the news about the wedding, old interviews of the actress and her family talking about her future husband have resurfaced online; and in 2011, Shatrughan Sinha spoke about how he wants Sonakshi’s future husband to stay with them.
Shatrughan Sinha and Poonam Sinha, appeared on Simi Grewal’s show, India’s Most Desirable, in 2011. Speaking about Sonakshi’s future husband, Shatrughan said, “One day, she will go away to in-laws. Given a chance and choice, we won’t look for a son-in-law but we will look for another son for us, who will stay with us.” He added, “I will only say that Sonakshi, I love you, we are always there with you. I am your bestest father’.”
Poonam Sinha said, “Sonakshi, the person you want to live the rest of your life with, as I always told you that he should be someone who loves you more than you love him.” Shatrughan added that Sonakshi is also “very sentimental and emotional” and cries even if he accidentally cuts himself while shaving.
Meanwhile, Sonakshi and Zaheer are said to tie the knot on June 23. In his first reaction to the wedding rumours, Shatrughan Sinha admitted that he wasn’t aware of the wedding. Later, Pahlaj Nilhani confirmed that the veteran actor was upset with his daughter but it wouldn’t last long.
Speaking with Times Now, Pahlaj said “Ha, but he can’t remain upset for long, not with Sonakshi. She is his laadli. Shaadi nahin attend karne ka koi sawaal hi nahi paida hota. As Shatruji said to you, aaj kal he bachche inform karte hain, permission nahin lete. Why should he be upset if Sonakshi is marrying the boy of her choice? Shatruji himself married a girl of his choice forty years ago. Even I chose my own life partner when I married my wife. One should not have unrealistic expectations from one’s children.”
However, Shatrughan later spoke with the Times Now and said that his happiness lies in Sonakshi’s happiness. “I will be there at the wedding, certainly. Why shouldn’t I and why won’t I? Her happiness is my happiness and vice versa. She has every right to choose her partner and the other details of her wedding,” he said.
