Actress
Sonakshi Sinha
got married to her longtime boyfriend and actor
Zaheer Iqbal
on June 23 in a civil
marriage
ceremony in Mumbai. Following their marriage, the couple jetted off to Singapore and the Philippines to enjoy their two honeymoon trips. Zaheer recently revealed how his idea of getting married was different from Sonakshi’s plans.
During an interview with Galatta India, Sonakshi Sinha and Zaheer Iqbal were asked if their main plan was to be married in front of their family.
Sonakshi admitted that it was always her plan. Zaheer interrupted and said, “I wanted to
elope
….Just bounce to the country and go somewhere, get married, and come back but I got to know that
wedding
is not valid in India.”
Sonakshi clarified that she desired a small wedding while Zaheer’s plan was cancelled. Regarding their marriage plan, the actress mentioned that he was fine with his relatives and friends attending the event. Sonakshi shared that they wanted “all the people who had been part” of their lives at the wedding.
She went on to say that they had “one big party” as planned for their wedding. Sonakshi said, “‘Zaheer aur Sona ki shaadi hai to ek party toh banti hai (We believed that it was our wedding so there had to be a celebration).” The ‘Kakuda’ actress concluded that the guests had an incredible time and the newlyweds had a “blast”.
In the same interview, Zaheer Iqbal recollected that the couple “controlled” their emotions to a great extent throughout the promotion of their film ‘Double XL’ in 2022. Zaheer said that they spoke some “stuff” while hinting about their relationship. Sonakshi responded by saying she could still recall every detail.
On the work front, Sonakshi Sinha was recently seen in ‘Kakuda’. It also starred Riteish Deshmukh and Saqib Saleem in pivotal roles.
