“But genuinely, we’re not that very different from each other. Our core values are the same,” she continued to opine. “Our parents have taught us to be good human beings and believe in God, irrespective of whatever name you know him by. The most important thing in life is to be a good person – that’s the kind of values we have imbibed.”
Sharing thoughts similar to his better half, Iqbal added, “I know one thing for sure: that I could have 50,000 disagreements with Sona, but it will never have anything to do with religion.”
“Salim’s uncle [Salman Khan’s father] had once shared with me that this is what he had told Salma Aunty’s parents when they got married,” he disclosed.

“In the seven years that we were dating, the fact that we are from different faiths has never come up in a discussion. We both respect other religions. It’s never been an issue for us or even a discussion,” Sinha maintained. “The only noise is from the outside.”
