Sonakshi Sinha and Zaheer Iqbal recently tied the knot after dating each other for seven years and while their families blessed them, Sonakshi’s older brother Luv Sinha did not attend the wedding and implied that he did not approve of their union in a tweet. He later deleted the tweet and said ‘matters are resolved’. Rumours of Sonakshi and Zaheer’s relationship have been around for some time now and when, in an earlier interview, Luv was asked about how he handles such speculation about his sister and he said that even though he has expressed his opinion to her, she does not listen to him.

In a chat with Siddharth Kannan, which was uploaded in 2023, Luv said while talking about Sonakshi, “As a brother, I will always be concerned about other individuals because everyone, on the surface, always tries to show that they are good. They try to project themselves a certain way but the reality can be very different and I, as a brother, would do my duty to do a check on anyone and everyone. That’s how I do it.”

When asked if Luv was possessive about Sonakshi, he said, “I am not possessive, I just like to say what I believe. It’s a different thing that she doesn’t listen. She is how she is. She doesn’t listen but I come from the place where I am not benefitting from anything. Outsiders may benefit, outsiders always have an agenda. I am only thinking as an older brother.” Luv further added that he only advices out of concern but if his sister, or anyone else, wants to make a different choice, it is up to them. “Not just Sonakshi, why would I give advice to anyone? I will only do it out of concern, care. Beyond that, if someone wants to jump in a well, they will do it even if you try to stop them. Not just for Sonakshi, I am saying this generally,” he said.

A few days after Sonakshi and Zaheer’s wedding, Luv shared a post on X saying that he did not attend their wedding because he would not “associate with some people no matter what.” He also shared a news article about the groom’s father but later, deleted that tweet. After deleting the tweet, Luv shared another post that read, “The quote that is being incorrectly attributed to me is not my statement and was written in an article by a senior journalist. The matter is now closed, and I will not be commenting on it any further.”

Days before the wedding, there were reports that the Sinha family was going through a tough time because of the wedding. The rumours started after Shatrughan Sinha said that he was waiting to be informed about his daughter’s wedding. The veteran actor later clarified that he would be attending his daughter’s wedding, and so he did. Sonakshi’s mother and brother Kussh were also present at the wedding.
