Sonakshi Sinha and Zaheer Iqbal, who tied the knot on June 23, 2024, continue to charm fans with glimpses into their married life. The couple, who celebrated their first wedding anniversary, are known for their playful banter and open displays of affection, often sharing relatable and heartwarming moments on social media.
Recently, Sonakshi shared a romantic picture with Zaheer on her Instagram, capturing a sweet moment of closeness. In the picture, Sonakshi is seen affectionately nuzzling her cheek against Zaheer's, both dressed in stylish black outfits. The caption accompanying the photo, "Yes, I love to chipko to you," reveals her fondness for physical affection and closeness with her husband. This confession resonates with many wives who enjoy being close to their partners, highlighting Sonakshi's down-to-earth and relatable personality.
In November 2024, Sonakshi revealed in a chat with Kareena Kapoor Khan that she was the first one to say "I love you" in their relationship and it only took her a week. She admitted to knowing almost instantly that Zaheer was "her person." She humorously added that boys usually take a little more time to express their feelings.
Zaheer, on the other hand, has his own unique way of showing love – by playfully annoying Sonakshi. In an Instagram video shared in November 2024, Sonakshi humorously captioned the video, "When you marry a guy whose love language is to annoy you." The video showed Zaheer teasing her while she was trying to rest on a flight, pulling her face mask over her eyes. Despite the initial surprise, Sonakshi bursts into laughter and playfully taps him, showcasing their fun and affectionate dynamic.
The couple's journey began with friendship. Salman Khan introduced Sonakshi and Zaheer, and their bond gradually evolved into a romantic relationship. They dated for seven years before formalizing their union in an intimate ceremony. Since then, they have been sharing cherished moments with their fans, offering glimpses into their joyful life together.
Professionally, Sonakshi has also been thriving. She garnered acclaim for her role in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s web series "Heeramandi: The Diamond Bazaar" in 2024. Currently, Sonakshi is working on "Jatadhara" opposite Sudheer Babu, which will also mark Shilpa Shirodkar's comeback to the big screen.
