Sania denied visa for Sialkot, reception likely in Lahore
April 1st, 2010 - 1:02 pm ICT by ANIKarachi, Apr.1 (ANI): The Pakistan High Commission has denied tennis star Sania Mirza a visa for Sialkot, the home town of Pakistani cricketer Shoaib Malik where a reception (Valima) was to be held after the couple’s marriage.
Sania has only got visa for Lahore and Karachi following which the reception is likely to be shifted to Lahore.
Sania and Shoaib will tie the knot on April 11 in Hyderabad while their wedding reception is slated to be held in Dubai on April 15, where the sports couple would be staying after marriage.
They are not the first ‘celebrity’ cross-border couple. Former Pakistan Test opener Mohsin Khan had married Bollywood actress Reena Roy in the 1980s, but the marriage didn’t last long.
Sania has also clarified that she was not making any political statement by marrying Malik. (ANI)
