Also in the pic, host #JitenDoshi & Dr Manish. It’s celebration time in the Sinha parivar!” For the unversed, Pahalaj is Sonakshi’s uncle.
Pahalaj, in a recent interview with Zoom had also expressed optimism over Shatrughan attending Sonakshi’s marriage and said, “Of course, why shouldn’t they? He (Shatrughan) can’t remain upset for long, not with Sonakshi. She is his laadli (darling). Shaadi nahin attend karne ka koi sawaal hi nahi paida hota (There is no question of him not attending the wedding). ”
Shatrughan Sinha approves Sonakshi-Zaheer’s wedding
A recent report by Times Now also mentioned that the actor-politician has confirmed his presence at the wedding. Shatrughan was quoted saying, “Tell me, whose life is it anyway? It’s just the life of my only daughter Sonakshi, whom I am very proud of and immensely fond of. She calls me the pillar of her strength. I will be there at the wedding, certainly. Why shouldn’t I and why won’t I? Her happiness is my happiness and vice versa. She has every right to choose her partner and the other details of her wedding. I am extremely tied up with my political work in Delhi. The very fact that I have still been in Mumbai conveys that I am here not only as her pillar of strength but as her real kavach (armour) as well. Sonakshi and Zaheer have to live their life together. They look very nice together. Those who are coming out with fake news are just sounding very frustrated with this joyous occasion as they are spreading nothing but lies. I would like to caution them with my signature dialogue: Khamosh, it’s none of your business. Mind only your business.”
