As soon as Izhaan was born, son of ace tennis player Sania Mirza and former Pakistan cricket captain Shoib Mallik, the paparazzies stationed themselves outside the Rainbow Children’s Hospital in Hyderabad. Since then the shutterbugs have been waiting to capture some glimpse of the baby covered in the blanket.
Although Sania has been posting the pictures of her baby for quite some time now, on her social media, but the clear face of the baby was never shown. So, finally when she decided to post a full picture of her baby, the internet was all about praises and even the stars from the tinsel town couldn’t stop themselves from commenting how cute and adorable Izhaan looked. She wrote, ‘Living life in the fast lane can be fun!!! It’s time to say hello to the world.’
A while ago when the player was pregnant, she shared the most important message for her soon-to-be-born baby and had said, ‘I think as an expectant mother the most important message that I want to give not just to my child but to every child is that you have to follow your dreams whatever they are even if they are out of the box or out of the ordinary, you have to believe in yourself.’ She gave birth to Izhaan on October 30th last year.
In another interview Sania has revealed the surname of the baby as ‘Mirza-Mallik’ saying, ‘Today I will tell you a secret. My husband and I have spoken about it and we have decided that whenever we have a child, the child will have Mirza-Malik as a surname and not just Malik. So that’s where we stand as a family including my husband.’ Clearly Izhaan Mirza Mallik is a total cutie.
In 2017, Sania took a break from tennis after undergoing surgery and then later extended the break and announced with her husband Shoaib Malik that they were expecting a baby.
