In a late-night Instagram post on Thursday, former Indian tennis player Sania Mirza shared a photo of herself in front of a mirror with a one-word caption, choosing to “reflect.” This marks her first social media activity since the confirmation of her ex-husband Shoaib Malik’s marriage to Pakistani actress Sana Javed.
Shoaib Malik had posted photographs of his wedding with Sana Javed on January 20. Sania, who had remained silent on the matter, resumed her social media presence with this enigmatic post. Previously, her activity was limited to posts related to the Australian Open on X (formerly Twitter), where she serves as a broadcaster.
The former World No.1 also conveyed her wishes for the 75th Republic Day in a video message, emphasizing the celebration’s focus on women empowerment.
Interestingly, before Shoaib’s marriage announcement, Sania had posted cryptic stories on her Instagram account. A couple of days after Shoaib’s announcement, Sania’s family confirmed the long-standing separation between the multiple Grand Slam winner and the Pakistani cricketer.
Amidst ongoing rumors and speculation surrounding their strained relationship, the revelation comes as the couple, who got married in April 2010, publicly acknowledged their divorce. The statement issued by Mirza’s family urged fans to respect her privacy during this sensitive period.
Sania Mirza, celebrated as one of India’s greatest tennis players, retired from professional tennis last year after a career spanning two decades and winning six Grand Slam titles in doubles and mixed doubles events.
