sohrab mirza sania mirza marriage

HYDERABAD: Tennis ace Sania Mirza has found her life partner,
according to family sources -- Hyderabad's Sohrab Mirza. As the story
goes, the fami
lies of Sania and Sohrab have been friends for years. They discussed
the proposal some time back and agreed, the source said.

And before one says 'Sohrab who?' here goes: he is the son of Adil
Mirza and Noora Begum, owners of the Universal Bakers chain in the
city, which is popular with the hip set.

Sohrab, 23, is a year older than Sania. After a B Com from St Mary's
College, he took admission in a British university for an MBA. He is
expected to fly to UK soon.

Adil's father, Samad Shakebai, better known as Samad Seth, is an
Iranian businessman. Early in his career in Hyderabad, he was a
caterer to Prince Azam Jah, the eldest son of the last Nizam. He
married into Hyderabadi nobility - Shaheda Begum. While Seth set up
restaurants, Begum was involved in social work, essentially girls'
education. They have three sons - Kamran, Nariman and Adil, and a
daughter. The family is now into real estate business.

"The marriage date has not been fixed. Sania wishes to continue
playing for some more time while the boy is still studying. It might
take some time before the families agree on a date," the source said.
