Mumbai: After skipping sister Sonakshi Sinha’s inter-faith marriage to her longtime beau Zaheer Iqbal last June, the brothers of the ‘Dabangg’ actress sparked a fresh controversy by staying away from the joint birthday celebration of their father and brother-in-law.
Sonakshi’s father Shatrughan Sinha turned 79 on December 9 while her husband Zaheer turned 36 on December 10, 2024.
The actress recently shared a video on her YouTube channel, giving fans a glimpse into the joint birthday celebration, which was filled with love, laughter, and warmth.
However, Sonakshi’s apparently miffed brothers Luv and Kush were missing.
In an interview with Retro Lehren earlier, Shatrughan had shared his views on Luv and Kush avoiding Sonakshi’s wedding. “I won’t complain. They are only humans. They may still not be so mature. I do understand their pain and confusion. There is always cultural reaction. Maybe, if I was their age, I might have had a similar reaction. But here is where your maturity, seniority, and experience comes in place. Hence, my reaction was not as extreme as that of my sons.”
Rekha, one of the guests in the joint birthday party, was warmly welcomed by Shatrughan’s wife.
“I want to tell everyone that my soul sister is here. Everybody say hello to her,” said Poonam Sinha over the microphone on Rekha’s arrival.
