Zaheer’s sweet birthday tribute
Zaheer Iqbal made sure Sonakshi Sinha’s 38th birthday on June 2 was extra special — by giving fans a peek into their intimate celebrations. The actor took to social media to share a series of unseen photos and videos from the actress’s big day, and the internet couldn’t get enough.
The pictures showed Sonakshi in her element — laughing, posing with a face mask, and enjoying quality time with her closest friends and family. One particularly adorable snap featured the birthday girl hugging Zaheer from behind while they posed together. Another captured a cozy dinner date at a restaurant, where Sonakshi looked absolutely delighted in her husband’s arms.
Along with the visuals, Zaheer dropped a heartfelt caption that read “I love you my BIRTHDAY GIRL” — simple, mushy, and totally couple goals. The post quickly went viral, with fans flooding the comments section with love and warm wishes for the actress.
From seven years of love to a quiet wedding
Sonakshi and Zaheer’s love story has always been a low-key affair. The couple was in a relationship for seven years before they finally tied the knot on June 23, 2024, in an intimate registered wedding at Sonakshi’s Mumbai residence. Only close family and friends were part of the ceremony, followed by a grand reception that saw many Bollywood stars in attendance.
Throughout their relationship, the duo managed to keep their personal lives away from the constant glare of the media. Even after marriage, they have maintained a relatively private profile — but occasional social media posts like this one give fans a glimpse into their world.
Recently, the couple has been spending time in the United Kingdom. Zaheer had earlier shared a picture from their trip, confirming that they are enjoying some quality travel time together. It seems the birthday celebrations may have been a mix of locations — both in Mumbai and abroad.
What’s next for Sonakshi and Zaheer?
On the work front, Sonakshi Sinha continues to be one of Bollywood’s most bankable stars. She shot to fame with Dabangg and has since delivered hits like Rowdy Rathore, Lootera, Holiday, Akira, and Mission Mangal. Her recent performance in the web series Heeramandi also earned her widespread praise.
Zaheer Iqbal, who made his Bollywood debut with Notebook, is steadily building his filmography. While he hasn’t announced any upcoming projects yet, industry insiders say he’s keen on exploring varied roles.
For now, the couple seems to be enjoying their time together — traveling, celebrating milestones, and occasionally treating fans to sweet glimpses of their life. And if Zaheer’s birthday post is anything to go by, the love is only getting stronger. Arre wah, couple goals indeed!
