After marriage, Sania and Malik are likely to settle down in Dubai — Malik holds a UAE passport. This move probably factors in Sania’s tennis career as well.
Malik, incidentally, was involved in a legal battle with another Hyderabad girl, Ayesha Siddiqui, in 2008. She had alleged that Malik married her over phone in 2002 and demanded a legal divorce.
Sania had been engaged to childhood friend Sohrab for seven months before calling it off, citing “incompatibility”.
Shoaib Malik said, “I fully understand what it takes to be an international sports person and I will support Sania in her career as long as she wishes to play.
“Representing India at the 2012 Olympics is very important for her and I will be the proudest husband if she can win a medal for her country,” he added.
Making a statement on the development, Sania said, “My wedding inshallah is going to be the biggest day of my life. I have been in the constant glare for too long and would appreciate privacy at this very personal moment in my life.”
“I hope to be fully fit to represent India in the Commonwealth and Asian Games that are scheduled for later this year,” she added.
Sania’s father Imran Mirza, who also confirmed the marriage reports, said, “This is a unique case where the husband and wife will represent their respective countries in sport.”

Where is the so called ” MINORITY LEADERS ” hiding? NCW should also take up this matter and investigate the injustice done to AYEESHA. Pakistanis & Arabs should not be allowed to ” DUMP ” Indian girls for Sexual Pleasure or Fraud.
