In one of the earlier interviews, Sonakshi Sinha revealed how “conservative” her father Shatrughan Sinha was and preferred to have Sonakshi to not leave her house and would rather want her husband to live with them instead of the in-laws.
While speaking to Simi Grewal in 2012, Sonakshi Sinha shared, “I am the apple of his eyes, and he has pampered me so much. He wants to build a house for me where I bring my husband. He doesn’t want to let me go away to my husband’s house. He wants to bring my husband to our house.”
Sonakshi’s mother, Poonam Sinha also agreed with her on the lines of Shatrughan Sinha being a conservative father. Poonam at the time asserted, “He is as conservative as any father can be, and I would say much more, because coming from the background he comes from, he is extra conservative about her.”
In the same interview, Shatrughan said, “One day she would go to live with her in-laws, but given a chance and choice, we won’t look for a son-in-law. We will look for another son for us, who is going to stay with us.”
The actor at the time also hinted that he would prefer Sonakshi to take his permission on the man she dates.
“There is no harm in dating if you are dating the right person. I don’t want her to go through the experiences I have gone through,” said Shatrughan adding, “If and when she dates, I am sure it will be in our knowledge, and I hope she does it with our consent.”
