Shatrughan Sinha is upset with Sonakshi Sinha for not informing him about her wedding plans, her ‘mama’ Pahlaj Nihalani has confirmed. Last week, news broke out that Sonakshi is marrying her longtime boyfriend Zaheer Iqbal. A leaked wedding invite confirmed the news and also revealed that Sonakshi has been dating Zaheer for seven years. In his first reaction to the wedding rumours, Shatrughan admitted he wasn’t aware about the wedding but he sounded upset.
When Pahlaj Nihalani was asked about his reaction, he confirmed that Shatrughan is upset with her but it will not last long. He added that Shatrughan will be attending the ceremony as well. Sonakshi and Zaheer will be getting married on June 23. The intimate wedding ceremony will take place in Mumbai.
Speaking with Times Now, Pahlaj said “Ha, but he can’t remain upset for long, not with Sonakshi. She is his laadli. Shaadi nahin attend karne ka koi sawaal hi nahi paida hota. As Shatruji said to you, aaj kal he bachche inform karte hain, permission nahin lete. Why should he be upset if Sonakshi is marrying the boy of her choice? Shatruji himself married a girl of his choice forty years ago. Even I chose my own life partner when I married my wife. One should not have unrealistic expectations from one’s children.”
Defending Shatrughan’s initial reaction to the news, Pahlaj said, “You must have spoken to him when he was out of Mumbai for almost three months due to elections. Bhabhiji must have known . She must have decided to tell him about it (the marriage) after his return. Now he is back in Mumbai and all is well between Sonakshi and her family.”
For the unversed, Shatrughan had told Times Now that he wasn’t aware of Sonakshi’s wedding and added, “I am being asked by people close to me why I am 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 later spoke with Times of India and said that while he is not confirming or denying the wedding rumours, he is giving Sonakshi all his blessings for her big day — whenever it comes. “If my daughter is getting married, I will give her my blessings and support her decision and choice. Sonakshi has the right to choose her companion, and I will be the happiest father on her wedding day. I will always wish her the best… ek hi toh beti hai meri,” Shatrughan said.
