Sonakshi Sinha shares her opinion on ‘Love Is Universal Religion’ amid receiving flak for her inter-faith marriage with Zaheer Iqbal

Sonakshi Sinha and Zaheer Iqbal recently tied the knot in a beautiful but simple ceremony in Mumbai but their inter-faith marriage invited trouble from hardcore Hindu activists. The latter accused the actress of promoting ‘love jihad’ further asserting her hand in attempting ‘Islamify’ India. Furthermore, these activists from Bihar even went on to threaten the actress to refrain from entering the state. While many of her fans came in support of her, an artist made a statement about ‘love is love’ and the actress couldn’t agree more about it!

Taking the concept of man and wife by recreating a frame-worthy moment from the reception bash of Sonakshi and Zaheer, the artist posted this caricature on his official social media handle with the caption, ‘Love Is Universal Religion’. Immediately reacting to the photo and the words, actress Sonakshi Sinha dropped a comment saying, “Truest words!! This is adorable (feeling loved emoji) thank you.” While the actress and her actor husband maintained silence over the flak they are receiving for their inter-faith marriage, this is the first time Sonakshi has reacted to a religion-based comment.

Protests in Bihar target Shatrughan Sinha along with Sonakshi, actor reacts

Posters put up across Patna by the Hindu Shivbhavani Sena threaten Sonakshi Sinha, stating they will not allow her entry into Bihar. The group further directed their message towards Shatrughan Sinha where they demanded he change the names of his palatial Mumbai residence, ‘Ramayana’, and his sons, Luv and Kush, claiming these names disrespect Hinduism. Shatrughan Sinha reacted to these accusations in a Times Now report wherein he said, “My daughter has done nothing illegal or unconstitutional. A wedding is a very personal decision between two people; no one has the right to interfere or comment. To all the protestors I say – go, get a life. Do something useful with your life.”
