In a post on Facebook, Sania’s father wrote, “For the past few days there has been a lot of public discussion about a certain issue in our lives, which has left me and my family devastated. Many people are bothering me personally and peppering me with question after question about a topic of our life which is made up of half-truths. Shoaib Malik and Sania Mirza have been married for the past 12 years. Like everyone else, there are ups and downs in their lives. Some people like Tom, Dick, and Harry are trying to make sensational stories about it, which we do not support.â€?/p>

He also wrote, “Not all answers in life are yes or no. Both of them are ideals in the sports world. Without thinking about the family, they dedicated their whole lives to making the country proud. They at least expect more. Now the World Cup is in Australia! Please focus on supporting your own country!�/p>

The controversy started around a post by Sania. She recently posted several posts on Instagram. In almost every case, ‘the mind is not good, she is not good either. 35-year-old Sania has more than one crore followers on Instagram. The tennis star shared two statements on her Instagram story on October 28. One of them read – ‘God knows your soul is tired.’

Later, she wrote on Instagram â€?Where do broken hearts go? Looking for God? After that, the rumors of Sania-Shoaib’s family breakup became stronger.
