A Match Made in Heaven?

"See we gotta get it right but we always get it wrong 

And it be the same old thing and it be the same old song 

Here we go one more time here we go one more time

Now we Spinnin' yeah we spinnin' 

Yeah we spinnin' now we spun "

- Lyrics from Flipsyde's Spun, the song I am listening to right now

Words out of Sania Mirza's life? Who knows, except the divine matchmaker!?

Today's latest celebrity scoop that the tennis damsel is going to marry Shoaib Malik comes as a bolt out of the blue for many readers. In 2007, she said she is struck by Shoaib Akhtar , later she ends up getting engaged to her childhood sweetheart,  Sohrab Mirza ..and now, she is all set to be married to cricketer Shoaib Malik  . 

Ain't she an ace at being in the news  for everything but tennis!?

But lets, assess for the sake of putting some sense out of this game, will this cross-border marriage work? A marriage where 2 celebrity sports-people from enemy-nations are involved, one serving a sports ban and one recuperating. Both of them have had "hyderabadi heartbreaks" (apparently Malik was engaged to a certain Ayesha Siddiqui from Hyderabad).  Moreover, they are likely to be in the media glare, even on a neutral turf like Dubai (where they plan to settle for now). Former Pak opener Mohsin married actress Reena Roy  in the 1980s but it did not last. 
Or maybe the "external environment" does not matter, what matters is that the families agree and as sports persons they support each other in their careers..a very happy ending to this rocky start. It is a million dollar question but always an interesting when one Sania is involved. Marry she will to anyone in sight, but she is firstly betrothed to controversy!
