Mumbai: Actress Swara Bhaskar, who recently criticised a food blogger’s social media post in which he expressed pride in being a vegetarian, has now spoken about soon-to-be-married couple Sonakshi Sinha and Zaheer Iqbal.
The actress expressed her disappointment over societal interference in personal matters and defended Sonakshi and Zaheer’s right to privacy.
Sonakshi is currently facing a lot of trolling on the internet due to her inter-religious relationship with Zaheer.
Speaking about this, Swara, who herself had an interfaith marriage with politician and activist Fahad Ahmed, told Connect Cine: “What they (Sonakshi and Zaheer) do in their personal lives, whether they get married or not, is up to them. It is nobody’s business whether they are living together, getting married in court, having a ‘nikah’ or an Arya Samaj marriage.”
The actress also anticipated further controversies and said that the couple’s future children could be subjected to public scrutiny. The same happened with Bollywood stars Kareena Kapoor Khan and Saif Ali Khan’s children Taimur and Jeh.
Swara added: “Wait and watch, when they have a baby, there will be a separate debate over the baby’s name. We have seen this happen with Kareena and Saif’s kids and my baby. It’s completely stupid, but it’s not going to end soon.”
