Sonakshi Sinha and Zaheer Iqbal got married on June 23, 2024. The couple decided to keep their relationship private, dating for seven years before marrying. Recently, Sonakshi revealed the reason behind this, which was to avoid ‘looks’. She also said that being an actress, she is already in the headlines, so some things should be kept to herself.
In a recent conversation with CNN-News18, Sonakshi Sinha was asked if there was any particular reason why she and Zaheer Iqbal did not discuss their relationship openly. In response, the actress said, “Yes, Nazar,” which means to keep away the evil eye.
Sonakshi further revealed her belief that being an actress, attention is often diverted from her work and legacy. Thus, he felt it was better to keep personal things private. Sona further said, “You are already in the headlines; Everyone knows everything about you. The thing that is very dear to you should be kept with you.”
In June, Sonakshi Sinha and Zaheer Iqbal had a registered marriage at their home. They were surrounded by their close friends and families. The couple officially announced the wedding on Instagram and shared dreamy photos from the ceremony. While signing the papers, happiness was clearly visible on the faces of the bride and groom.
In the caption they have expressed their love for each other. The note read, “On this day, seven years ago (23.06.2017), we saw love in its purest form in each other’s eyes and decided to make it last. Today that love has guided us through all the challenges and triumphs… to this moment… where with the blessings of both our families and both Gods… we are now man and wife.
The heartfelt caption ended by saying, “Here’s to love, hope and all beautiful things with each other from now until forever. -Sonakshi Zaheer. 23.06.2024.”
