This comes after several reports on internet claimed that Gauahar Khan and her boyfriend Zaid Darbar have decided to tie the nuptial knot next month and the wedding will take place in Mumbai.
In an interview, Ismail opened up about his son Zaid's relationship with Gauahar and shared that he and his wife Ayesha are very fond of her. He recalled meeting Gauahar for four hours before she entered the Bigg Boss 14 house as a senior alongside Sidharth Shukla and Hina Khan.
Ismail said: "Gauahar was with us for nearly 4 hours; we had a biryani dinner together. If the vibes are not good, I don't think one can sit for more than 4 minutes with anybody in today's times. My son Zaid has told me that they are serious about each other. I have absolutely no objection. As a father, I did tell him once that she is 5 years older to him and make sure that this is real love before you take the plunge into matrimony. My son seems sure. And from the time, Gauahar spent with us, I can assure you that she takes immense care of him. Besides, my wife Ayesha has a knack of knowing if a person is genuine after she talks to him/her; she has found Gauahar genuine." Ismail however claimed that they didn't discuss marriage in that interlude.
Ismail's wife Ayesha, added, "We are happy in every decision that Zaid takes. He has never differentiated between me and his mother. Gauahar is a very sweet girl. We have left it to them to decide what they want to do with their lives."
About their marriage date, Ayesha said, "We haven't discussed any dates. But yes, if Zaid and Gauahar decide for tomorrow or after six months or even today, we are ready for whatever they want."
Meanwhile, Gauahar is currently locked up inside the BB 14 house.
