Former tennis star Sania Mirza recently shared an emotional moment from her life, revealing how she experienced a panic attack after her divorce from former Pakistan cricket captain Shoaib Malik. In a heart-to-heart conversation on the first episode of her new YouTube talk show, Serving It Up With Sania, Sania opened up about the support she received from Bollywood director and choreographer Farah Khan during this difficult period.
Sania Mirza Was In BAD State After Divorce From Shoaib Malik, Farah Khan Became Her Support
Farah appeared as the show’s debut guest, and the two friends discussed some of the most challenging moments Sania has faced. Speaking candidly, Sania recalled how Farah’s presence helped her regain composure before a live show on one of her hardest days.
Sania said, “I don’t want to mention it on camera, but there was a moment that was one of the lowest moments when you (Farah Khan) showed up on my set, and I had to go on a live show after that. If you had not come there I was shivering. And if you would not have come there, I wouldn’t have done that show. You told me – No matter what, you are doing this show.”
Farah also reflected on that day, describing her own concern for her friend. She said, “I got so scared. I had to shoot that day, but I just left everything and came there in my pyjamas and chappals. I just wanted to be by her side at that moment.”
The duo also discussed Sania’s journey as a single parent. Farah praised her for balancing work and family life with strength and grace. She said, “For you to do it alone, you have to work, raise your son and give him time. It’s double the effort, and you’re doing it beautifully.”
