A recent video circulating online captured spectators chanting the name of Shoaib Malik’s ex-wife, Indian tennis star Sania Mirza, while Sana Javed, his current wife, was seated nearby.

Reacting to the viral video, several Indian fans praised the Pakistani supporters for trolling the Pakistani actresses, with comments like “Kaam aisa karo ki India-Pakistan milke gaali de (Do something that leads to abuses from both Indians and Pakistanis).”
Check out the reactions of the fans:
Sana Javed tied the knot with Shoaib in January, catching fans off guard with the announcement by sharing photos from their wedding ceremony. Shoaib took to Instagram to post the first glimpses of their wedding, causing a stir on the internet.
Before marrying Sana Javed, Shoaib Malik was wedded to Sania Mirza. They had a lavish wedding in Hyderabad in April 2010 and lived in Dubai. When news broke about Shoaib’s marriage to Sana, it was disclosed that Sania requested a ‘khula’. In Islamic law, a khula allows a woman to seek divorce from her husband independently.
