Sania Mirza Getting Married


Sorry people Sania Mirza is it's not exactly a Bollywood celeb but no less than one.And any news related to marriage or engagement or even affairs is big in our world of celebs... so here you are.

Indian Tennis sensation Sania Mirza is about to be engaged to Indian businessman Sohrab Mirza. Sohrab is the son of Adil Mirza and Noora Begum, who own Universal Bakers chain in Hyderabad. Sania and Sohrab are long time friends or you can say childhood "friends" and are going to be married soon, in all probability in 2010.

Sania Mirza started her career in 2003 and has had a career high ranking of 27 in singles and 18 in doubles. The Indian government bestowed upon her the Arjuna award. Sania Mirza’s name has been linked to a lot of big celebrities like Marat Safin and Shahid Kapoor. Sania is no less than any Bollywood star in India, and enjoys a strong fan base all over the world.

In 2009, Sania Mirza won the Australian Open Mixed Doubles title playing with Mahesh Bhupathi, which was her maiden Grand Slam title. She and partner Bhupathi beat Nathalie Dechy (France) and Andy Ram (Israel). She then played at the Pattaya Women’s Open tournament in Bangkok. She reached the finals, but lost to Vera Zvonareva.

Sohrab Mirza, born in 1985, is a year older to Sania Mirza, and is presently planning to go to the UK to pursue MBA. Sania Mirza is currently playing in the French open, so she was not available for any comment.

In 2006 Sania Mirza was awarded the Padma Shree, which is the fourth highest civilian honor in India. The engagement date has been set for 10th of July. As a Muslim she had faced a lot of flak from the orthodox Islamic factions the world over for her attire but hey I'm sure those orthodox people will never comment on Salman who takes his shirt off at the drop of the hat.Or will they?
