Sania all set to shed her singledom status

Hyderabad Sania Mirza's days of singledom come to an end tonight with the Indian tennis ace all set to get engaged to childhood friend Sohrab Mirza in a private ceremony in Hyderabad.

Sohrab is an MBA student and son of a city-based businessman.

The 22-year-old Sania and Sohrab (23) will exchange rings at 8.30pm at a posh city hotel on Friday night.

With two cupid-struck youth creating nuisance outside Sania's Banjara Hills residence in the last two days, the city police have made tight security arrangements to ward off any trouble at the function.

The Mirza family have gone to great lengths to keep the function a private affair, away from media glare.

"This is a private affair and we request the media to cooperate with us," Sania's father Imran Mirza told mediapersons who gathered outside their residence.

Sohrab is pursuing MBA in Britain and his father owns a chain of bakeries in the city.

The groom's family, who migrated from Iran many years ago, lives in Anand Nagar in the heart of the city.

Imran Mirza had earlier said that Sania would pursue the game after her engagement. The wedding would take place a couple of years later.

Sania is likely to leave for America later this month to participate in the US Open and other competitions, sources said.

Who gives two dimes for Sania Mirza by Jay on 10 Jul 2009

She is the half blind queen among the blinds. Media needs to stop giving print space to her and instead concentrate on Saina who is actually performing and not pretending.Sania is kind of a joke here in the west, where all one can talk about is the long media queue behind her even though she is a pathetic singles player
