Sania-Shoaib's big fat wedding today

Finally it is happening. The much speculated marriage of Indian tennis ace Sania Mirza and Pakistani cricketer Shoaib Malik is going to take place today. The wedding ceremony will be held in Hyderabad in the presence of the couple's families and their close friends.

Rucha Nayak, Sania's media co-ordinator, confirmed that the nikaah would be held today followed by mehndi ceremony tomorrow (April 13) and reception on April 15. She added that the families of the spouse decided not to publicise the nikaah, as it's a religious ceremony. It is said that Sania would wear her mother's wedding saree for her wedding too.

It was earlier reported that the nikaah would take place on Friday night (April 9) but it turned out to be just rumours. Shoaib recently got divorced from Ayesha Siddiqui, thus paving the way for his marriage with Sania.
