In a new interview, the couple shared a beautiful divine providence during their wedding and added that the kanyadan was delayed by 15 minutes.

In an interview with Galatta India, newlyweds Sonakshi Sinha and Zaheer Iqbal said that while the Pandit was reciting mantras during the Kanyadan ceremony, they could hear the Azaan in the background and described the moment as divine intervention.

Zaheer explained, “I think that was the most beautiful moment of my life. It was so beautiful. The Kanyadan was 15 minutes late and when we finally sat down, I held her hand and we prayed.”

He continued, “Suddenly Sona said, ‘Can you hear that?’ I asked, ‘What?’ She replied, ‘The adhan is playing’ and it was such a beautiful moment. The pandit was praying, reciting the mantras and the adhan was playing in the background while we were getting married. It felt like a divine intervention.”
