This reflects the condemnation that public figures often face, because of the possibility of so-called ‘love jihad’, when a Hindu girl marries a Muslim man, in a society immersed in the concept of caste and religion.

In an interview with Bollywood Bubble, Sonakshi Sinha discussed her parents' reactions to her impending marriage. She mentioned that while her mother occasionally brings up the subject of marriage, her father tends to avoid it, suggesting he might have reservations about her getting married. Reports indicate that Shatrugan Sinha has had mixed feelings about Sonakshi's wedding to Zaheer Iqbal. Initially, he stated that he learned about the marriage through the media rather than directly from his daughter. Despite this, he expressed his support and joy for her upcoming wedding.
