Actor-politician Shatrughan Sinha has responded to the rumors swirling about his daughter, Sonakshi Sinha, who is said to be getting married to her rumored boyfriend Zaheer Iqbal. There have been rumours that Sonakshi and Zaheer are getting married on June 23 in a private affair in Mumbai. Though, Shatrughan Sinha has said that he does not have any knowledge about this.
“Main bhi utna hi janta hoon jitna media se pada hai”
In an interview with Times Now, Shatrughan Sinha shared his thoughts on the matter. “I am in Delhi right now. After election results came out I flew down here. I haven’t spoken or consulted anyone concerning my daughter’s plans. So your question is she getting married? The answer is that she hasn’t told me anything about it. Main bhi utna hi janta ho jitna main media maine padha hai If and when she takes me into confidence, my wife and I will give the couple our blessings. We want her happiness always,” he said.
Shatrughan Sinha trusts daughter Sonakshi Sinha’s judgement
Shatrughan Sinha stated that he trusts Sonakshi’s decision-making abilities.“We trust our daughter’s judgement completely. She would never make an extra-constitutional or illegal decision.” As a consenting adult, she has the right to make her own decisions.” Having said that, I would like to say that whenever my daughter gets married, I would like to be dancing right in front of the baaraat,” he added.
The veteran actor also revealed that he has been inundated with calls regarding the rumoured wedding.“I’m being asked by people close to me why am I not aware of this (the supposed wedding), and the media is aware of it. All I can say is, aaj kal ke bachche consent nahin lete maa-baap ke, sirf inform karte hain. We are waiting to be informed,” he concluded.
