Shanzay Ali Rohail, who recently married Junaid Safdar, has stepped into the public spotlight following the high-profile wedding linked to Pakistan’s most influential political family. She is now the granddaughter-in-law of former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and the daughter-in-law of Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz. The grand ceremony not only attracted political attention but also sparked curiosity about who Shanzay is and how she fits into Pakistan’s powerful political circles.
Who is Shanzay Ali?
Shanzay belongs to a well-known and influential family even before her marriage. She is the granddaughter of Rohail Asghar, a close aide and trusted associate of Nawaz Sharif for many years. This connection already placed her within the wider Sharif political network. Her marriage to Junaid Safdar further strengthened the ties between two prominent families, turning the wedding into one of the most talked-about social events in Pakistan.
A High-Profile Wedding in Lahore
The wedding celebrations took place in Lahore and were attended by senior political leaders, party figures, relatives, and close associates. The guest list reflected the family’s continued influence in national politics. Because of this, Shanzay’s appearance, family background, and personal decisions quickly became topics of public discussion, especially across social media platforms.
Debate Over Shanzay’s Indian Wedding Outfits
A major part of the online conversation centred on Shanzay’s wedding wardrobe. She wore outfits designed by well-known Indian designers, which sparked widespread debate. Although Shanzay has not made any public statement about the criticism, her position as a new member of Pakistan’s most prominent political family has placed her fashion choices under intense scrutiny.
For her mehendi ceremony, Shanzay Ali wore a lehenga by Indian designer Sabyasachi Mukherjee. For the main wedding event, she chose a richly embroidered red saree by Tarun Tahiliani. She completed the look with a diamond choker set with a large emerald.
