Since announcing their wedding, Sonakshi Sinha and Zaheer Iqbal have been embroiled in controversy. Rumors initially suggested that Sonakshi’s family disapproved of the marriage, but these were later debunked.
To manage the negativity, the coupledisabled comments on their Instagram wedding posts. Recently, Sonakshi subtly addressed the trolling by commenting on an illustration by Prasad Bhat that featured caricatures of her and Zaheer at their wedding reception.

Sonakshi reshared Bhat’s post, highlighting that “love is the universal language,” adding,
“Truest words!! This is adorable! Thank you.”
The illustration charmingly depicted Sonakshi in a red saree with sindoor and a bindi, while Zaheer was shown in a bandhgala, both with bright smiles.
Meanwhile, Sonakshi’s father, Shatrughan Sinha, urged trolls to cease their negativity. Speaking to Times Now, he quoted lyricist Anand Bakshi, saying,
“Kuchh to log kahenge, logon ka kaam hai kehna,” and added, “Kehne waale agar bekar, bekaam-kaaj ke ho to kehna hi kaam ban jata hai (For unemployed people, this is all the work they have). My daughter has done nothing illegal or unconstitutional.”
Richa Chadha also expressed her support for Sonakshi by sharing a heartfelt message on her Instagram Story. She wrote,
“Dear Sona and Zaheer! I am floored by your simplicity, your commitment to each other and am so damn happy that you dance to your own tune! Didn’t get a photo with you because you were swamped, but Ali and I love your spirit!”
Richa, who is in the last trimester of her pregnancy, attended Sonakshi and Zaheer’s wedding reception in Mumbai.
