Looks like Sonakshi Sinha and Zaheer Iqbal were not going to let the internet have all the fun with the viral 'Melody' meme trend. The couple jumped onto the social media craze with a cheeky Instagram reel, and fans are loving every bit of it.
Shared in a joint post by Sonakshi and Zaheer on Wednesday, the playful clip arrives just ahead of the release of her upcoming film, System. And honestly, it is peak couple-core chaos with a side of toffee.
In the video, Sonakshi asks Zaheer, “What do you wanna ask?” To this, he replies, “You know exactly how much I love you.” Sonakshi then teasingly says, “No, then.” Moments later, Zaheer dramatically pulls out a Melody toffee and says, “Melody khao, khud jaan jao (Have Melody and know).”
Naturally, the internet ate it up.

The comments section quickly filled with laughing emojis, fan edits and reactions praising the duo’s comic timing and chemistry. Several users said they enjoyed seeing celebrities put their own spin on the viral trend instead of simply recreating the same meme format.
The 'Melody' meme has completely taken over social media after Prime Minister Narendra Modi gifted a packet of Melody toffees to Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni during his visit to Italy. The moment reignited the already popular “Melodi” meme trend surrounding the two leaders, leading to an avalanche of memes, reels and jokes online.
Apart from Sonakshi and Zaheer, celebrities including Kriti Kharbanda and Ravi Kishan have also shared their own takes on the trend.
Meanwhile, Sonakshi is gearing up for her next film, System. But before the film hits screens, her latest reel has clearly given fans another reason to keep refreshing Instagram.
