In a touching Instagram post on June 4, 2025, well-known television actress Hina Khan and her long-time partner, producer Rocky Jaiswal, announced their marriage.
The couple, who have been together for more than a decade, shared photos from their private wedding ceremony, which featured official marriage documents being signed and customary Mehendi rituals.
Fans and followers have been curious about their relationship's legal status, especially if it was formally recognised by the Special Marriage Act of 1954.
No formal confirmation has been given regarding whether Hina and Rocky's wedding was registered under the Special Marriage Act, despite the fact that they publicly announced their union.
Without discussing the legal requirements, their announcement focused primarily on the commitment and the personal significance of their relationship.
They might have chosen to use the Special Marriage Act, which is frequently utilised for interfaith couples looking for a civil marriage, given their disparate religious backgrounds.
The Special Marriage Act, 1954, is a secular law in India that allows individuals to marry regardless of their religion. It provides a framework for civil marriages that are solemnised by a Marriage Officer and duly registered, thereby granting the couple full legal recognition and the associated rights. This Act is particularly suited for couples from different faiths or those who prefer a non-religious ceremony.
In their Instagram announcement, Hina and Rocky beautifully expressed their union: “From two different worlds, we built a universe of love. Our differences faded, our hearts aligned, creating a bond to last lifetimes. We are our home, our light, our hope and together, we transcend all barriers. Today, our union is forever sealed in love and law. We seek your Blessings and Wishes as Wife and Husband.”
For context, after seven years of dating, actors Sonakshi Sinha and Zaheer Iqbal formally got married last June under the Special Marriage Act. Close family and friends attended their private civil ceremony, which took place at Sonakshi's home in Mumbai.
