Zaheer shares Shatrughan Sinha's reaction when he asked for Sonakshi's hand
Zaheer recalled, "I went to their house, and I was nervous because I had never had a one-on-one chat with him (Shatrughan Sinha) before. Once we started talking, we discussed a million things and became like friends. I told him I wanted to marry his daughter. Despite his intimidating image, he turned out to be genuine, chilled out, and one of the sweetest people I’ve met in a long time."

Sonakshi added, "I was nervous when I told my father about us. I didn't know how he would react, so I tried to play it cool. I asked him, 'Aren’t you worried about my marriage because you haven’t asked me anything about it?' He replied, 'I have asked your mom to ask you.' When I mentioned Zaheer, he said, 'I also read about it. You guys are grown-ups; if the groom and bride are ready, what will the judge do?' I realized then how chilled out and supportive my dad is about our relationship."
