Now, in a new interaction with CNN-News18 Mumbai Townhall 2024, Sonakshi revealed why she chose to keep her relationship private and it is because of Nazar.

During the conversation, the Heeramandi actor said, “Nazar (bad eye). I feel it’s always better to keep private things private. You’re already so much in the limelight; everybody knows everything about you. Something that is so dear to you should be kept for yourself. We met, we fell in love, we started going out. For me, I realised very early on that this is permanent.”
