'Will he or won't he?' has been the question that has been doing the rounds about Shatrughan Sinha's attendance at daughter Sonakshi Sinha and Zaheer Iqbal's wedding. Shatrughan Sinha has shut down the rumours in his own style. He termed the rumours around his family as 'fake news' that is being spread by frustrated people. The senior actor said that he is very fond of his daughter and will certainly attend the wedding ceremony. He also added that Sonakshi and Zaheer "look very nice together."

He shared with Zoom, "Tell me, whose life is it anyway? It's just the life of my only daughter Sonakshi, whom I am very proud of and immensely fond of. She calls me the pillar of her strength. I will be there at the wedding, certainly. Why shouldn't I and why won't I? Her happiness is my happiness and vice versa. She has every right to choose her partner and the other details of her wedding."

Sinha said that he has been busy with his political work in Delhi but the fact that "I have still been in Mumbai conveys that I am here not only as her pillar of strength but as her real kavach (armour) as well."

There has also been several reports of there being tension in the Sinha family ahead of Sonakshi's wedding. It was also reported that Sonakshi's mother Poonam and her brother unfollowed her on Instagram in the week leading up to the wedding. Denying any tension in the family, Sinha said, "Those who are coming out with fake news are just sounding very frustrated with this joyous occasion as they are spreading nothing but lies. I would like to caution them with my signature dialogue: Khamosh, it's none of your business. Mind only your business."

Earlier, Pahlaj Nihalani had said that Shatrughan Sinha is upset with his daughter Sonakshi for not informing him about her wedding plans. When Pahlaj was asked about Shatrughan Sinha's reaction, he shared that the actor is upset with his 'laadli,' but his anger will not last long.

Speaking with Times Now, Pahlaj said, "Ha, but he can't remain upset for long, not with Sonakshi. She is his laadli. Shaadi nahin attend karne ka koi sawaal hi nahi paida hota. As Shatruji said to you, aaj kal he bachche inform karte hain, permission nahin lete. Why should he be upset if Sonakshi is marrying the boy of her choice? Shatruji himself married a girl of his choice forty years ago. Even I chose my own life partner when I married my wife. One should not have unrealistic expectations from one's children."

Further, Pahlaj defended Sinha's initial reaction and said, "You must have spoken to him when he was out of Mumbai for almost three months due to elections. Bhabhiji must have known. She must have decided to tell him about it (the marriage) after his return. Now he is back in Mumbai, and all is well between Sonakshi and her family."
