Actor-turned-politician Shatrughan Sinha addressed the rumours about his daughter Sonakshi Sinha's wedding. On Monday, reports surfaced that Sonakshi is set to marry her rumoured boyfriend Zaheer Iqbal on June 23 in Mumbai.


While Sonakshi and Zaheer have not commented on these claims, Shatrughan mentioned that Sonakshi hasn't told him anything. He added that kids these days don't ask for permission to marry; they just inform their parents of their decision.

Shatrughan told Times Now, “I am in Delhi right now. After the election results, I flew down here. I haven’t spoken to anyone about my daughter’s plans. So your question is, is she getting married? The answer is that she hasn’t told me anything about it. Main bhi utna hi jaanta ho jitna main media maine padha hai. If and when she takes me into confidence, my wife and I will give the couple my blessings. We wish her all happiness always.”
 
“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 said.

Talking about how he has been flooded with calls about the impending wedding, he said, "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 concluded.

About the reports

Reports suggest that Sonakshi and Zaheer will marry at a South Mumbai venue. However, the couple has not confirmed any of the reports regarding their upcoming marriage. According to media reports, the wedding invitation is said to be designed like a magazine cover with the text "rumours are true."

Reports also claim that close family and friends, including the star cast of 'Heeramandi,' have been invited to the ceremony.

Sonakshi was born to veteran actor Shatrughan Sinha and Poonam Sinha in 1987. She turned 37 on June 2 this year. Meanwhile, Zaheer Iqbal was born in 1988 and is 35 years old. The age difference between the duo is two years.
