Away from the 'controversy & confusion', Shatrughan Sinha enjoyed the T20 World Cup Finals, praises Anushka Sharma's hero 'Virat Kohli': pics inside

Earlier this afternoon, Shatrughan Sinha took to his X handle to share a few pics of enjoying himself, while watching the India vs South Africa T20 World Cup finals match, that India won to lift the coveted trophy. While the venue of the pics was not clear, the veteran actor was seen in the company of some friends and his wife Poonam Sinha. Sharing the same, he wrote, "Away from the 'controversy & confusion' created by some of our good friends from the social media/Youtubers.


The fact is enjoying with best of our family members, brothers & dear friends.Enjoying the most talked about International Cricket match between #SouthAfrica & #India. Also great to watch the 'hero' of not only our dear #AnushkaSharma but also the hero of the nation #ViratKohli. It was a treat watching great performances
of #JaspritBumrah #HardikPandya #SuryaKumarYadav & of course everyone's favorite the one, & perhaps the only one #RohitSharma.Kudos & Cheers to our boys in blue for this magnificent win. Both stalwarts #ViratKohli & #RohitSharma taking a bold & beautiful decision at the right time of retiring from T20s on a High note & paving the way for the next generation is truly a fantastic encouragement indeed! It was a most thrilling, exciting & entertaining match & we must give full credit to Team South Africa also for their most committed performance. God Bless! Jai Hind!"

Earlier, the actor and politician was admitted to a private hospital here after he developed a "strong fever", said his son Luv Sinha on Sunday. The 77-year-old -- popular for '70s and '80s films such as "Mere Apne", "Kalicharan", "Vishwanath", "Kaala Patthar" and "Dostana" -- is also undergoing an annual check-up at the medical facility, he added.

It couldn't be confirmed immediately when Sinha was taken to the hospital. "My father had a strong fever and we decided to take him to the hospital so that he could recover and we could have his yearly tests done as well," Luv told PTI in a WhatsApp message.
It has been quite an eventful month for Sinha, who emerged victorious from West Bengal's Asansol constituency for his party TMC in the 2024 Lok Sabha polls, followed by the much-talked-about wedding of his actor-daughter Sonakshi Sinha to longtime partner and "Double XL" co-star Zaheer Iqbal on June 23. He was seen getting emotional as his daughter signed the registered marriage document at her residence.

There were reports that Sinha had undergone a minor surgery but Luv denied such claims.
"I have been going there (to the hospital) every day, so (I) can tell you that there was no surgical procedure," he said.
Newlyweds Sonakshi and Zaheer were spotted exiting the hospital on Friday.
Earlier in the day, Luv criticised a website for allegedly running an "online campaign" against him on a "false premise" about why he didn't attend his sister's wedding.
"Why I chose not to attend. Running an online campaign against me on a false premise won't change the fact that for me my family will always come first (sic)" he wrote on X.
While Luv previously asked for some time to respond to questions of his absence from the ceremony, his twin Kussh had denied reports that he skipped the wedding.
