Sonakshi Sinha breaks silence on hate after interfaith marriage with Zaheer Iqbal; says, “Zaheer and I kept each other sane”
In an interview with Zoom, Sonakshi Sinha spoke about the severe trolling she faced after her interfaith marriage to Zaheer Iqbal, highlighting how people targeted their religion.
When the interviewer pointed out that the comments were in poor taste, Sonakshi agreed, stating, “Yes, they were low in taste and are still low in taste. While the world was commenting on our interfaith marriage, Zaheer and I kept each other sane. We don’t need any validation from outside. We know what we have, and it is very sacred to us. We protect it, we celebrate it, we enjoy it, we love it, we flaunt it.”
Reflecting on her wedding, Sonakshi shared that every moment held deep meaning for her, saying, “It was just us being us, getting married the way we wanted. The moments that were captured were so beautiful because they weren’t planned. They were real, honest, and truly ours.”
Sonakshi made her relationship with actor Zaheer Iqbal official by marrying him in June last year. The couple had been together for seven years before tying the knot on June 23, the same date they began their relationship. They later hosted a celebration for close friends and family. Sharing their wedding pictures, they wrote, “On this very day, seven years back (23.06.2017), in each other’s eyes, we saw love in its purest form and decided to hold on to it. Today that love has guided us through all the challenges and triumphs… leading up to this moment… where with the blessings of both our families and both our gods… we are now man and wife.”
On the work front, Sonakshi is set to make her comeback to the big screen with Nikita Roy, a supernatural drama directed by her brother Kussh S Sinha. The film, which also features Arjun Rampal and Paresh Rawal, was initially scheduled to hit cinemas on June 27 but will now release on July 18.
