Sonakshi Sinha Speaks on Love, Marriage, and Career Highs

Actor Sonakshi Sinha expresses her joy in marrying longtime boyfriend Zaheer Iqbal and emphasizes that love should be paramount. Their civil marriage was followed by a star-studded reception. She reminisces about key moments from her wedding day and discusses her current successful career, including her roles in 'Kakuda' and 'Heeramandi'.

Actor Sonakshi Sinha believes that nothing else should matter when two people are in love and is overjoyed to have followed her heart by marrying longtime boyfriend Zaheer Iqbal.

Sinha and Iqbal, who is also an actor, held a civil marriage ceremony followed by a glamorous reception on June 23.

'I feel that when two people are in love, nothing else matters. And I hope people have the strength to follow their heart just as I did. I’m happy,' the actor told PTI. She wishes for everyone to live harmoniously and 'appreciate and respect each other regardless of their backgrounds.'

Reflecting on special moments from her wedding, Sinha recalls numerous joyful instances, especially the ceremony where they signed the marriage documents. 'Just before we left for the reception, and the house started to empty as everyone was heading to the venue, it was just the two of us. We took a moment, went up to the house we plan to make a home, and paused to take it all in. We looked out at the city and held each other,' she recounted.

Currently starring in the horror comedy 'Kakuda' alongside Riteish Deshmukh and Saqib Saleem, Sinha is enjoying a career resurgence with the success of 'Dahaad' last year and 'Heeramandi: The Diamond Bazaar' this year.

In 'Kakuda', directed by Aditya Sarpotdar of 'Munjya' fame, Sinha also takes on a double role. 'It's very interesting, especially when you are doing it in the same film. You play two very different characters, and you have to portray them differently. I enjoyed it a lot,' she added.
