Sania Mirza's engagement called off

Sania Mirza’s engagement with Sohrab Mirza has allegedly been called off because her in-laws wanted her to give up tennis after marriage and focus on her husband and spend time with him.

Sania’s family friend says, “Sohrab’s father [Adil Mirza] wanted a normal marriage for his son where the bride would spend a lot of time with her husband. But Sania’s tennis tournaments keep her away from India for 8-9 months on an average every year. So when she heard of Adil’s wish, Sania agreed to give up tennis. This was not acceptable to Sania’s father, however, and the engagement was called off.”

The status of women in India has been subject to many great changes over the past few years. India has had many notable women at the forefront of their chosen fields, such as Saina Nehwal (badminton), PT Usha (athletics), and Indira and Sonia Gandhi (politics).

Considering this, was it fair of Sohrab’s father to demand that Sania give up tennis after marriage? Was it okay to ask India’s number one women’s tennis player to give up a promising career?
