A photo is being shared widely on social media with a claim that Ananya Dagar recently got married to ‘Nawabzada Haider Ali Khan’ alias Hamza Mian and converted herself into ‘Shaukat Zamani Begum’. Let’s fact-check the claim made in the post.
Claim: Ananya Dagar recently married Nawabzada Haider Ali Khan and converted herself into ‘Shaukat Zamani Begum’.
Fact: While it is true that Ananya Dagar married Haider Ali Khan, the marriage happened in December 2020. So, the marriage was not recent. Hence the claim made in the post is MISLEADING.
When the photo was run through Google Reverse Image, many similar photos were found in the search results. A journalist tweeted the same photo in December 2020 and wrote – “Ananya became ‘Shaukat Zamani Begum’ for Hamza Mian. Married to Hamza Mian, son of former minister Nawab Kazim Ali” (translated). Many news agencies have also reported on the marriage in 2020. Those news articles can be read here, here, and here.
More visuals from their wedding in 2020 can be seen here, here, and here. It should be noted that while news agencies have reported that Ananya Dagar converted herself into ‘Shaukat Zamani Begum’, Hamza Mian in his 2022 election affidavit has mentioned his wife’s name as ‘Ananya Dagar’.
To sum it up, Ananya Dagar married Nawabzada Haider Ali Khan in 2020, not recently
