Popular television and Bollywood actress Hina Khan recently tied the knot with her longtime boyfriend Rocky Jaiswal. The couple’s wedding photos were shared on Hina’s official Instagram account, where they received an overwhelming amount of love from many fans. However, not all reactions were positive.
The reason behind the mixed responses lies in the couple’s different religious backgrounds. Hina Khan comes from a Muslim family, while Rocky Jaiswal belongs to a Hindu Marwari background. Although many fans congratulated the couple, a section of Hina’s Muslim followers expressed anger and disappointment over her decision.
After being in a relationship for many years, Hina and Rocky finally made their bond official through marriage. While some social media users celebrated their union with heartfelt messages, others criticized it, mainly due to the fact that Hina did not follow traditional Islamic wedding rituals.

Many Muslim followers were especially upset over the assumption that Hina chose to perform Hindu wedding rituals like ‘saat pheras’ instead of a traditional Nikah. This cultural difference became the center of online discussions, leading to heavy trolling from a portion of her Muslim fanbase.
Despite the negativity, the couple also received warm wishes from several celebrities, including Bipasha Basu and Ekta Kapoor. These stars publicly congratulated Hina and Rocky, calling their marriage a beautiful celebration of love.
Unfortunately, the backlash from some social media users was harsh. One user commented, “When a Hindu girl marries a Muslim guy, everyone says ‘Mashallah’ and praises it. But when it’s the other way around, people start crying. This is pure hypocrisy.” Another wrote, “Rocky is my dog’s name,” showing clear disrespect. A third user added, “Before disgracing the name of Muslims, Hina Khan should have felt some shame.”
These kinds of comments highlight the ongoing challenges interfaith couples face in public life, especially celebrities. While love is meant to be celebrated, social media has once again shown how religion and personal choices often become the target of unnecessary criticism.
Regardless of the mixed reactions, Hina Khan and Rocky Jaiswal continue to enjoy their new journey together. Their wedding may have sparked a debate, but it also reminded many that love knows no boundaries, religion, or rules.
