Sonakshi Sinha and Zaheer Iqbal respect each other’s customs

Recently, Sonakshi Sinha had a candid conversation with The Right Angle, in which she opened up about her personal life with Zaheer Iqbal. While talking about her interfaith marriage, the Dabangg actress shared that religion is something that has never come in between her and Zaheer. She revealed that the beauty of her relationship is that she and her husband respect each other’s customs. She explained:

"There are certain customs that he and his family follow, which I really respect, and there are certain customs that me and my family follow, which they respect. So I think that’s the beauty of it. Religion is something that will never come in between the two of us. There’s never been any question or a fight or anything, like any sort of tension when it comes to that, and I think that’s the most beautiful part of it. Our strength lies in respect."

Sonakshi continued to mention that after being with Zaheer for so many years, she realised the importance of being with someone, who brings out your inner child. She mentioned that she always missed this feeling and now with Zaheer, she couldn’t be more happy. She was quoted as:

"We say we want to find someone we want to grow old with. After being with a person like Zaheer, you realise you need someone you can remain a child with. Ussi se hansi mazak barkarar rehta hai. You are constantly laughing. This was something I was missing in my life. Ab aa chuka hai, toh I couldn’t be happier."

In the same interview, Sonakshi shared that Zaheer has a very strong bond with her family. The actress said that whenever they visit her family, Sonakshi’s father, Shatrughan Sinha and Zaheer usually talk for a long time. They are like good friends. In her words:

"100% damad he is. Everyone runs helter-skelter saying ‘Zaheer aa rahe hai, damad ji aa rahe hai… all the food has to be ready’. And my mom will ask me ten times, kya khayega…and dad loves spending time with him. I think they’ve become really, really good friends, so when I go and both of them are in the room, I’m the one who's khamoosh and both of them are usually talking to each other!"
