Mumbai, May 21

Sonakshi Sinha and Zaheer Iqbal are back with another fun video, and this time, the couple has joined the viral 'Melody' trend.

The two, who got married in 2024, often share funny videos on Instagram. Their latest clip has now caught the attention of fans on social media.

In the video, Sonakshi can be heard asking Zaheer, "What do you wanna ask?" Zaheer replies, "You know exactly how much I love you." Sonakshi then says, "No, then." Zaheer then takes out a Melody toffee and says, "Melody khao, khud jaan jao."

The couple shared the video with the caption, "In a parallel universe."

Soon after the video was posted, fans chimed in the comments section with funny reactions. One fan wrote, "You will never be bored for sure. Full on in-house entertained.... Free." Another commented, "Sona your expressions at the end always gets me and zaheer toh hai hi pareshan karne." A comment also read, "Meloni+ Modi= Melody."

Sonakshi and Zaheer dated for seven years before solemnizing their relationship. The two starred together in the film Double XL in 2022.

The 'Melody' trend started after Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni shared a light moment over India gifting Italy a packet of Melody chocolates. In the viral clip, Meloni was heard saying, "Prime Minister Modi brought us a gift: a very, very good toffee," to which PM Modi replied, "Melody." The moment left both leaders laughing.

Seriously, why does everything have to be politicized? First it was the "Vishwaguru" narrative and now even a toffee trend. Can't we just enjoy a cute couple video without bringing Modi into it? The original clip was sweet but this obsession with connecting everything to the PM is exhausting. 🙄

Yaar, this is too cute! Sonakshi and Zaheer are relationship goals honestly - seven years of dating and still pulling off these fun reels. The "Melody khao, khud jaan jao" dialogue is iconic! Our Bollywood couples really know how to keep us entertained. More power to them! 💪❤️

As someone who follows international pop culture from Mumbai, this trend is wholesome but also a bit predictable. Every diplomatic moment gets memed now. Still, I appreciate how Sonakshi and Zaheer are keeping things light - Bollywood and politics mixing in a harmless way for once. Good vibes only!

LOL, I died when Zaheer pulled out the toffee! The way he said "Melody khao" with that straight face - brilliant! And Sonakshi's expressions are always on point. This is what I love about Indian entertainment - it can take something as simple as a sugar-free toffee and turn it into a viral moment. Mazaa aa gaya! 😂

Honestly, I find these "trends" a bit cringe - copying every random moment that goes viral. But Sonakshi and Zaheer are a genuinely cute couple and their reels are always entertaining. The way
