ISLAMABAD/KARACHI: Indian tennis star Sania Mirza has gotten engaged to former Pakistan cricket captain, Shoaib Malik and they might tie the knot next month, claimed a television channel on Monday. According to reports, the two sporting superstars have gotten engaged and their marriage would take place in April. Incidentally, Shoaib was earlier accused of marrying another Hyderabadi girl, Ayesha Siddiqui, in 2002 over the phone even though the cricketer said that he was merely engaged to her. Ayesha’s father had also threatened to sue Malik for jilting the girl and not giving her a divorce. Shoaib’s mother met Sania’s parents in India and accepted her as her future daughter-in-law. The ‘Valima’ reception is expected to be held in Lahore on April 16 or 17. The reports added that Sania and Shoaib fell in love some six-and-half months ago and it can be the reason for the breaking up of Sania’s engagement with her childhood friend Sohrab Mirza.
