Former Indian tennis star and ex wife of Pakistani cricketer Shoaib Malik, Sania Mirza, shared that Farah Khan supported her and gave her strength during the most difficult time of her life.
Sania recently invited Bollywood filmmaker and choreographer Farah Khan to her YouTube show “Serve It With Sania” where they talked openly on different topics.
They discussed the challenges of being parents especially the struggles of raising children as a single parent.
Farah Khan praised Sania Mirza for raising her son alone and said that it is a very tough and admirable thing to do.
She said that Sania manages her work home and son all by herself which shows her hard work and dedication.
In the show Sania Mirza said that children are very smart and they can feel when something is wrong at home even if parents try to smile and act happy. She said that it is better to separate than to raise children in a painful environment.
Sania also said that Farah Khan is one of her closest friends. People are often surprised by their friendship because they belong to different fields.
She shared that Farah supported her and encouraged her when she was going through the hardest phase of her life. At that time she had to host a live show and was very nervous. After Farah’s encouragement she was able to complete the show confidently.
It is worth mentioning that Sania Mirza and Shoaib Malik got married in 2010 and their son Izhaan was born in 2018. However their marriage officially ended in January 2024.
After that Shoaib Malik married Pakistani actress Sana Javed.
After the separation Sania lives with her son while Shoaib meets his son occasionally and shares their pictures on social media.
