Dude that will apply to you as well. The only difference is she is pretty/goodlooking/talanted and ranks in the top 100 and might get a good role… on the other hand you are.... (I hope u get it.) Do something for your country first and then speak. Probably acting might me good start.. if you can get 1

Good reply. She refused to play Bangalore tournament where she had a chance to play the best with some lame excuse and a chip on her shoulders.

in general indians are lazy persons and that attitude comes up in any sport event....they do better in sports which involves minimum physical exhaustion...problem is if one of them tried to turn up the table, 1 billion people started dreaming around him/her and soon this poor fella are suppressed under expectations and money flowing around her...now u see the problem??...if supporting somebody degrades her performance then rightout stop supporting and let her grow rubbing the shoulders with international players....another point, i personally believe champions are of their own genre...look at Federar , he might be undergoing bad time this year but he will be back soon and nobody can question his tennis ability, its just matter of time...problem with sania is she didnt show any champion quality at int. level so far, please dont say reaching career high 28 means she is a champion....she just has won one singles atp chpship that too 2nd or 3rd tier....only good thing with her is that she is still 21 so next 3-4 years will be her pick....so better she proves she can beat Vennus Williams on her day better for us..

Well said. Let us compare her to the chinese player who reached semi finals in the wimbledon. Look how humble she was and her attitude was great.Poor girl she gave all her earnings to the earthquake releif in her country. Sania wants to be pampered.

Even if you have negative-minded people, like Hari and Debarshi around, there are people like Anamika, Lucky and Vinayaka who will encourage you.

No wonder our women (Sania, Saina, humpy, etc) are doing so well. ;-) The women (players and supporters) have a better attitude!! :D

Our men are crabs! One comes up, the others pull them down!

dear women sportswoman, please have a good figure and decent looking face with large eyes, then there are people whom Khalid mentioned who will worship you for loosing in the 2nd round of every tournament. No need to actually practice hard and win matches, you also have the opportunity to act in B grade south indian movies.

SANIA
by pranjal das on Aug 07, 2008 07:37 PM

At a time when all our athletes and players need all the support and encouragement for the Games, some nitwit (the writer of the above article), is playing spoilsport.
If not anything, he/she could atleast have kept his/her trap shut.

At least Sania is doing that much, and has heralded the name of Indian women, but what is your contribution? You shouldn't criticse about what you can't do. Wish her goog luck.

Are you guys a fan of Sania's tennis or her T&A ( do you need me to elaborate on that). She hasn't won a single WTP tournament, done nothing of significance but display her T&A.

I dont understand why we people get sentimental. Sports is a war, if u win, applauses will be there else they shud be ready with the jeers. and its true that she hasn't showed any signs of true champion. Our country already had dearth of world champions and whenever somebody shows some promise we put the burden of whole nation on their shoulders without knowing what is their worth.
So ideally, we should forget about Sania till it shows her true champion colors.

she is not taking but she is going to different places around the world..it's our misfortune that we think she is an icon...let her reach top10 i would agree she is an icon..let her beat a big player atleast once eg..williams sisters,sharapova,kim clisjters,etc

STOP CRITICISING SANIA
by Rakesh Sharma on Aug 07, 2008 07:05 PM  | Hide replies

All must stop criticising Sania. With all her limitations, she did achieve something that most of the Indians have not. And her biggest achievement is her guts to stand against stupid and insane mullahs. She is the real man among billions of coward muslim men. Hail Sania. May god bless you Sania.

I would like to see her achievements similar to what Amrit Raj's have done to Indian Men's tennis. Getting into thirties itself is an achievement, considering the state of her opposition within India.

Vijay Amritraj's highest ranking was No. 13 in the world. Sania has come close to 20. We must not forget the meagre facilities available in India. Still she has come close to 20, though she is at No. 60 now. Criticism is no way to encourage a player.

it seems that this sharma guy is still suffering from inferiority complex, that is why he is venting by calling all muslim men coward.
wake up buddy! muslim rule in india ended a long time ago. you dont have to get frustrated anymore.
On the other hand if you are angry at your ancestors for not standing up and being men enough to fight a hugely outnumbered muslim men who ruled them a few centuries ago then your frustration is understandable.
