Sania Mirza has brought name,charm and glamour to Indian women's tennis. She fully deserves her fame achieved inspite of numerous hurdles and in a country where only cricketeers seem to be treated like demi-Gods. Her latest doubles achievements of so many grand slams in partnership with Martina Hingis is really superb. May be she might have done well in singles too but probably lack of time to play singles could be the reason for her doubles preference. Also by writing her autobiography she has shown her writting talent too. Her jealous critics many of them only becaus she is from the minority community ,have to eat their words. Keep it up Sania. India is proud of you.

Wrong to make your comment political edgar menezes.....smacks of malicious intention ....sania mirza as a sports icon is above such crafty misuse of her apolitical image in the larger interest of the sports fraternity of India which has nothing to do with politics.

It's actually a couple of highly controversial guys who made disparaging comments on her outfits, namely Owaisi and Zakir Naik.
It was her own community leaders who made life difficult for her.

Thanks Mike, for making a very appropriate point to enlighten edgar menezes who, for that matter perhaps doesn't know Sania and all our sportstars also have Modi's personal blessings.
.....to uplift the spirit of the sp[orts fraternity of the nation....your discipline, dedication and perseverance fetched you the victories and the applause on the court .....your goodness shall fetch you a lifetime of honour and love of the people around you ....your fellow citizens and thousands of young and aspiring sportsies of India do need your direct engagement with the sports world in whatever capacity you can....so bear in mind the larger potential you now carry as someone who can play a critical role in promoting sports, particularly tennis by calling for increased playing facilities and tournaments at every level across cities and towns of India within affordable range of common middle-class families.....you are thew right person to push the issue to the government and the corporate sector and make it an essential component of CSR....and things like sports cess etc.,.....all the bet for your own personal misssion in life .
