Shatrughan
Sinha

finally
ended
the
rumours
surrounding
daughter
Sonakshi’s
wedding
to
Zaheer
Iqbal,
and
filled
in
the
details.

“First
of
all,
a
lot
has
changed
since
I
last
spoke
to
you,”
Shatrughan
clarifies
to

Subhash
K
Jha
,
regarding
his


initial
statements
.

“There
are
developments
by
the
hour.
I
can’t
tell
you
about
all
of
it,
as
this
is
a
family
matter.
I
had
asked


Pahlaj
Nihalani
to
speak
to
you
.
But
I
thought
it
best
to
clue
you
in
directly.
So
yes,
my
wife
and
I
are
very
much
a
part
of
the
celebrations
on
June
23.”

So
Sonakshi
and
Zaheer
will
get
married
on
June
23?

“No,
it
is
not
the
wedding.
It
is
the
wedding
reception
that
we
are
attending
on
the
evening
of
June
23,”
Shatruji
reveals.

But
sections
of
the
press
have
announced
a
wedding
on
June
23.

Shatruji
corrects:
“No
one
from
my
family
said
anything
about
a
wedding.
Some
media
outlets
have
been
presuming
things.
Too
much
attention
is
being
given
to
a
private
family
matter.

Shadiyan
sab
ke
ghar
hoti
hain.

Pre-wedding
conflicts
are
also
common.
We
are
all
okay
now.
Whatever
the
stress
has
been
sorted
out.”

Has
Shatruji‘s
magic
wand
ironed
out
all
the
rough
edges
in
the
alliance?

Koi
wand
nahin
hai.
Main
koi
jaadugar
nahin.
Yeh
sab
hota
hi
hai
har
shaadi
mein
,”
he
says.

“Just
because
she
is
Shatrughan
Sinha’s
daughter,
it
doesn’t
mean
Sonakshi
can’t
have
what
she
wants
in
life.”

Then
he
says
with
mock-exasperation:
“Subhash,

bahot
sawaal
pooch
rahe
ho.

Yes,
I’ve
met
them.
Zaheer
is
a
good
boy.
He
will
be
keep
my
daughter
happy.”
