Sonakshi Sinha and Zaheer Iqbal’s wedding became one of the most talked-about events of the year. After being together for more than seven years, the couple got married in June. After the wedding, it was revealed that Sonakshi’s brothers, Luv and Kush, were against the union and decided not to attend the ceremony. Now Shatrughan Sinha talking about his son’s absence from the wedding said, ‘They are still not that mature at this age because they are only human beings.’
In a recent conversation with Retro Lehren, Shatrughan Sinha spoke on the absence of his sons at Sonakshi Sinha’s wedding. Although he refrained from commenting on why his sons decided to leave the marriage altogether, the veteran actor understood their pain and confusion.
He admitted that Luv Sinha and Kush Sinha were only human beings and were not yet fully matured. They also recognized the cultural reactions that could influence their decision.
Reflecting on his own experience, he mentioned that if he had been his age, he would have had a similar reaction. However, he stressed that maturity, seniority and experience play a role in one’s reaction, which is why his reaction was not as extreme as that of his sons.
When asked if he supports his daughter’s decision to have an inter-religious marriage, the veteran actor immediately replied that he would, adding that there is no reason not to do so. He explained that this was their life and their marriage, and if they were sure of each other, there was no reason for anyone to oppose it.
Sinha stressed that as a parent, it was his duty to support his daughter, a role he has always played and will continue to play.
She further said that despite all the discussions about women empowerment, it was not wrong for her to choose her partner, especially since she had not done anything illegal and was mature in her decision.
The actor also expressed his happiness at the wedding, saying that he enjoyed the wedding parties and was very happy meeting and greeting people. He mentioned that his daughter, Sonakshi, and her partner, Zaheer Iqbal, looked beautiful together, and the overall atmosphere was amazing.
