Sonakshi Sinha and Zaheer Iqbal are celebrating their first wedding anniversary on June 23, 2025, marking a year since their intimate registered marriage. The couple, who dated for approximately eight years, have openly expressed their love and gratitude, especially towards Sonakshi's in-laws.
To commemorate their anniversary, Sonakshi shared a heartfelt message on her Instagram Story, accompanied by a picture of Zaheer amidst soft, celebratory decorations. In her post, she affectionately referred to Zaheer as "the man who was my boyfriend for eight years and my husband for one," adding a light-hearted touch with a laughing emoji. She further lauded her in-laws, stating, "The best in-laws in the world. First, they gave me this man, and then they gave me endless love." Touched by her words, Zaheer reshared the message and responded with a brief but loving, "Love you jaaneman."
The celebrations have already commenced at Sonakshi's new home, with her Instagram posts offering glimpses into their intimate moments. This public display of affection marks a significant shift for the couple, who had previously maintained a low profile regarding their relationship. Since their marriage, Sonakshi and Zaheer have become more open about their bond, sharing candid posts that showcase their humor, love, and mutual respect, endearing them to fans.
Notably, Sonakshi's brother, Kussh Sinha, recently addressed rumors surrounding his absence from the wedding. He clarified that he did attend the ceremony, dismissing the reports as "fake news." He emphasized his love and respect for his sister, stating that controversies and trolling do not affect him.
Last year, Sonakshi and Zaheer's wedding was followed by a star-studded reception. A video shared on their six-month anniversary showcased highlights from the event, including Zaheer serenading Sonakshi with "Mujhse Shaadi Karogi" and Sonakshi dancing with Anil Kapoor. The reception was attended by numerous Bollywood celebrities, including Salman Khan, Vidya Balan, and Saira Banu, along with Sonakshi's parents, Shatrughan and Poonam Sinha.
In April 2025, Zaheer gifted himself a brand new BMW luxury SUV, posing with the car and his wife in an Instagram post. The couple's moments continue to trend online, with Sonakshi also making headlines for her sharp response to online trolls who made negative predictions about their marriage.
On the professional front, Sonakshi is set to appear in "Nikita Roy," a supernatural thriller directed by her brother, Kussh Sinha. The film, which also stars Arjun Rampal, Paresh Rawal, and Suhail Nayyar, is produced under the banner of Nicky Vicky Bhagnani Film, along with Kratos Entertainment, and Nikita Pai Films.
As Sonakshi and Zaheer celebrate their first year of marriage, their journey from discreet dating to openly embracing their relationship and family ties resonates with fans. Their anniversary posts offer a sincere glimpse into their lives, highlighting the love and support they share.
