Former tennis star Sania Mirza has shared a deeply emotional and personal moment from her life. She revealed that after her divorce, when she suffered a panic attack, her friend and Bollywood director Farah Khan stood by her, boosting her morale.
Sports News: Indian tennis star Sania Mirza has revealed a very difficult and emotional moment from her life. Last year, Sania and Pakistani cricketer Shoaib Malik divorced. During this period, Sania experienced considerable mental and emotional distress. Recently, in the first episode of her new YouTube talk show “Serving It Up with Sania”, she disclosed that after her divorce, when she suffered a panic attack, her friend and Bollywood director Farah Khan supported her.
Sania Recalls Difficult Time
Sania revealed in the episode that she was emotionally broken during the time of her divorce. She said,
- 'It was the most difficult time of my life. Farah Khan came to my set that day and helped me get ready for the live show. If she hadn't been there, I would have been trembling and probably wouldn't have been able to do the show. She told me, 'It's okay, you will do this show.''
This statement clearly shows how much relief and inspiration Farah's support proved to be for Sania.
Farah Khan Also Recalls the Moment
Recalling that day, Farah Khan said that she was very worried seeing Sania distressed. Farah recounted, "I was very scared. I had a shoot that very day, but I decided to leave everything and go there in my pajamas and slippers. I just wanted to be there for my friend in that moment."
Farah also praised Sania's single parenting. She said that Sania has shown amazing courage and dignity in raising her son, Izhaan Mirza Malik, alone. Farah stated, "Doing all this alone is not an easy task. Raising your child, dedicating time to them, and managing your career is a double effort. Sania is doing it beautifully."
Sania and Shoaib's Relationship
Sania Mirza married Shoaib Malik in April 2010. Their son, Izhaan, was born in 2018. In January 2024, Sania's family confirmed her and Shoaib Malik's separation. This came after Shoaib announced his marriage to Pakistani actress Sana Javed. Amidst rampant rumors and media discussions, Sania, by openly speaking about her personal life and emotions, has sent a message to her fans and women that the support of true friends and family plays a crucial role during difficult times.
Following Sania's revelation, her fans on social media hailed her as a brave and inspiring woman. People on Twitter and Instagram are praising Farah Khan's friendship and Sania's courage.
