Asli Sona: Sonakshi Sinha Responds to Trolls Criticizing Her Inter-Faith Marriage
27 June, 2024
Sonakshi Sinha and Zaheer Iqbal, who got married recently faced social media trolling for nearly two weeks. This trolling followed reports of their inter-faith marriage. Despite turning off comments on their Instagram profiles to avoid the negativity, Sonakshi has addressed the hate with a subtle but poignant response.
She responded by emphasizing that, love is all that matters.
On Tuesday, Sonakshi commented on an Instagram post by an artist who shared an artwork of the newlyweds in their wedding reception attire. The post was captioned, “Love is the universal religion. Wishing @aslisona @iamzahero a happy life.” Sonakshi replied, “Truest words!! This is adorable. Thank you.”
The post garnered supportive comments from others, echoing the sentiment:
“No problem with Shah Rukh Khan and Gauri Khan, Kareena Kapoor, and Saif Ali Khan, but why are people making an issue out of their relationship,” one user wrote.
Another commented, “That is so true. Humanity is the ultimate goal.”
Sonakshi and Zaheer opted for a civil marriage at her home on Sunday. The wedding was attended by close family, including her father Shatrughan Sinha, mother Poonam Sinha, and Zaheer’s parents. Following the ceremony, they hosted a reception for friends and family at a Mumbai restaurant. The event saw the presence of Bollywood stars like Salman Khan, Rekha, Kajol, and Raveena Tandon.
The couple, aged 37 and 35 respectively, shared pictures from their reception in a joint Instagram post, again with comments disabled. This decision came after they reportedly received a barrage of hateful messages regarding their inter-faith union.
