The past year has been nothing short of a fairytale for Sonakshi Sinha and Zaheer Iqbal, culminating in a celebration of their first wedding anniversary on June 23, 2025. What makes this milestone even more heartwarming is the evident affection and acceptance Zaheer has received from Sonakshi's family, particularly her in-laws. Social media has been abuzz with glimpses of their intimate anniversary celebration, offering a peek into the couple's loving bond and Zaheer's integration into the Sinha family.
Sonakshi herself has been vocal about her appreciation for her in-laws, even referring to them as the "best in-laws in the world." She highlighted their loving nature, particularly noting how they filled a room with heart-shaped balloons as an anniversary surprise. Such gestures speak volumes about the warmth and acceptance Zaheer has found within the Sinha household. This public display of affection strongly suggests that Zaheer has not only won Sonakshi's heart but also the hearts of her family.
The couple's journey began at a party hosted by Salman Khan in 2013, eventually blossoming into a relationship. They kept their relationship private for years before finally tying the knot in an intimate ceremony in Mumbai last year. Their wedding, a blend of tradition and modernity, was a testament to their commitment and love for each other.
Sonakshi, known for her role in "Dabangg" and other Bollywood hits, has often spoken about the importance of family in her life. Her marriage to Zaheer seems to have only strengthened those bonds, with Zaheer seamlessly fitting into her close-knit family circle. The couple's social media posts often feature moments with family, highlighting the shared joy and camaraderie.
Zaheer Iqbal, who has carved his own niche in the entertainment industry, appears to have embraced his role as a son-in-law with grace and genuine affection. He has been seen participating in family gatherings, celebrations, and even recreating iconic poses with his father-in-law, Shatrughan Sinha, showcasing a comfortable and affectionate relationship.
Their first anniversary celebration, marked by heartfelt social media posts and a cozy date night, further solidified their image as a couple deeply in love and cherished by their families. Sonakshi's Instagram post, in particular, expressed her boundless love for Zaheer, referring to him as her "husband of 1 year, and boyfriend of 8." She also credited her in-laws for giving her "this guy" and showering her with love.
Salman Khan played a significant role in their love story, as Sonakshi revealed that they first met at a party he hosted. She fondly calls Salman the 'sutradhar' in their love story.
As Sonakshi and Zaheer embark on their journey as husband and wife, it's evident that they have not only found love in each other but have also created a strong foundation built on family values and mutual respect. The outpouring of love and support from their families, particularly Sonakshi's in-laws' open acceptance of Zaheer, paints a picture of a modern family embracing tradition with open arms. The title of "Best Son-In-Law" seems fitting for Zaheer Iqbal, a testament to his character and the love he shares with his wife and her family.
