KKN Gurugram Desk | Bollywood’s celebrated singer Sonu Nigam recently set social media abuzz after sharing a series of elegant photos from a high-profile wedding event. What caught everyone’s attention wasn’t just the presence of film stars — it was the rare appearance of actor Sanjay Dutt’s daughter, Iqra Dutt, who is now 14 years old and nearly unrecognizable to many fans.
The event was the grand wedding of billionaire businessman Sunil Vaswani’s daughter, Sarina Vaswani, and was attended by several A-listers from the entertainment and business world. The images show Sonu Nigam and Sanjay Dutt enjoying the festivities, dancing, and posing together, dressed in coordinated black and golden sherwanis.
But what stole the spotlight was the graceful appearance of Iqra Dutt, Sanjay Dutt’s daughter, who looked all grown up and beautiful, leaving fans both amazed and nostalgic.
Iqra Dutt’s Glamorous Public Appearance Goes Viral
In one of the viral photos shared by Sonu Nigam on his official social media handle, Iqra Dutt can be seen sitting beside her father, dressed in an elegant pink lehenga choli, adorned with a minimalistic choker necklace and sporting soft makeup with open hair.
Many fans and followers were left in awe, commenting how the young girl has blossomed into a beautiful young lady, and how difficult it is to believe she is just 14. Some users even mistook her for a young Bollywood actress at first glance.
“Is that really Iqra Dutt? Time flies!” wrote one Instagram user.
“She’s stunning. Looks just like her mother,” said another.
The Dutt Family: A Look at Sanjay Dutt’s Personal Life
Actor Sanjay Dutt, known for his iconic roles in Indian cinema, married Maanayata Dutt in February 2008. The couple welcomed their twins, Iqra and Shahraan, in October 2010. While Shahraan has occasionally been spotted in Mumbai and on social media—especially in viral photos with Salman Khan—Iqra has largely stayed away from the limelight.
The twins are currently pursuing their education in Dubai, where they live with their mother, Maanayata. Sanjay Dutt, who is often seen shuttling between work commitments in India and his family in Dubai, has kept his children’s lives relatively private.

Searches for “Iqra Dutt latest photos” and “Sanjay Dutt daughter now” trended across Indian search engines on Monday morning, reflecting the growing public curiosity about the rarely-seen daughter of the Bollywood star.

The two long-time friends shared warm moments on stage, showcasing their camaraderie. Guests were treated to live performances by Sonu Nigam and luxurious hospitality that marked the wedding as one of the most extravagant events of the year.
