The Bollywood beauty Sonakshi Sinha got married to her boyfriend Zaheer Iqbal on 23 June after dating him for seven years and in a recent interview, Zaheer Iqbal recalled his first meeting with his father-in-law and famous senior actor, Shatrughan Sinha.
During an interview, Zaheer stated, “When I had to go take permission to propose, I was so scared. I was shaking and main baat kar raha hoon, aur pata chale wo mujhe bol de ‘Khaamosh.’ But he was so nice about it, he was so lovely.”
He further said, “I stammered and told him, ‘Uncle, wo actually, wo Sona ne aapko bataya hoga, ke we are…’ He replied, ‘Haan, bataya toh tha…’ I thought, ‘You don’t know where I am going with this?’ (laughs) I then said, ‘Uncle, main soch raha tha, main thoda, main thoda nahi pura propose kar deta hoon.’ He’s like, ‘Acha, very good, very good.’”
Zaheer said that he also offered Shatrughan to ask questions to him if he had any, Zaheer told, “I said, ‘Uncle, if you want to ask anything about me then please…’ Then we had a nice, one-hour conversation about everything and he was really sweet and loving. But I was really scared when I entered that room. If he would have said no, what would I have done? By mistake I told him I already bought the ring, so that he knows he shouldn’t say no.”
Sonakshi and Zaheer had civil marriage at the former’s Bandra residence and they also threw a grand reception party for their family members, friends and Bollywood celebs at Bastian restaurant.
