I think film star Noor from Pakistan is married to an Indian

She married an Indian man during her time off her career. He lives in Dubai and owns Event and Production Company. She lived in Dubai however as of April 2008, Noor moved back to Lahore, Pakistan.

she is currently the judge in Pakistani's biggest dance show Nachley alongside Humayoon Saeed

I don't think the Shiv Sena will have any problems.

On the other hand, given the amount of fatwas she got in India, it should be all those Muslim organizations who will be rejoicing... for sure!

Secondly, I don't understand why are all Pakistanis being so happy about this?

A) She is not going to live in Pakistan even after marriage. (Izzat ka faluda tabh hota hai jab bahu apne sasural mein kadam bhi na rakkhe :lol:)

B) She would still continue to support India in India-Pakistan matches and would not give up Indian passport.

I will continue to play for India, Shoaib for Pak: Sania-Celebs-Videos-The Times of India

(ab toh sasural ki izzat gaye kicchad mein :))

:lol:


you guys sound like aunties.."sasuraal" "izzat" :rofl:

That was a rumour ... she is getting married to Farooq Mengal, a Pakistani TV director.
 
ISLAMABAD (AP)—Former Pakistan cricket captain Shoaib Malik will marry Indian tennis star Sania Mirza, a union of two of South Asia’s best known sports personalities.

“The news of me marrying to Sania is true,” Malik posted on Twitter on Tuesday. “Inshallah (God willing) will get married in April.”

The post sparked instant news coverage in the region and the marriage will continue to attract a lot of attention because neighboring Pakistan and India are longtime rivals, and have fought three wars since 1947.

Mirza told reporters that the relationship was personal.

“We are getting married. We are not also making any political statement or anything on (Indo-Pak) relations,” she was quoted as saying by Press Trust of India. “It’s a simple matter. We are getting married. We are very, very happy and our families are very happy.”

Malik, who was in Sharjah, United Arab Emirates playing cricket, told private television channels in Pakistan that he was happy to be marrying Mirza.

“Our families are very happy and we both are also happy,” Malik told Geo News. “Parents will decide the dates (of the wedding), it’s happening somewhere next month.”

The 23-year-old Mirza had earlier asked for privacy after confirming in a statement that she and 28-year-old Malik planned to marry.

“My wedding Inshallah is going to be the biggest day of my life,” she said. “I have been in the media glare for too long and would appreciate a little privacy at this very personal moment in my life.”

Her father, Imran Mirza, said Sania and Malik will be based in Dubai, United Arab Emirates and continue to represent their countries in their respective sports.

“This is a unique case where husband and wife will represent their respective countries in sport,” he said in a statement issued in Hyderabad, India, where the family lives.

Geo Television reported that Mirza, her parents and sister, received visas at the Pakistan High Commission in New Delhi on Tuesday and were expected to travel to Pakistan next month.

The Daily Dawn newspaper quoted family sources of Malik as saying that a reception has been planned at Lahore in mid-April.

Malik, who has been banned from representing Pakistan for a year due to infighting within the team during a disastrous tour of Australia this year, said he supported Mirza playing on the WTA Tour and for India at the Olympics.

“I fully understand what it takes to be an international sportsperson and I will support Sania in her career as long as she wishes to play,” he was quoted as saying.

Mirza, a two-time Grand Slam mixed doubles champion, became the first Indian woman to crack the world top 40 rankings, reaching a career high of No. 27 in August 2007.

At one time, the Muslim player was assailed by conservative elements of the Indian community for competing in short skirts and sleeveless shirts. She has not advanced beyond the first round in her last four tournaments and withdrew from tournaments in Malaysia and the United States in recent weeks due to a wrist injury. She is currently No. 92 in the rankings.

Malik has played 29 tests and scored 1,517 runs at an average of 36.11. In 190 one-day internationals he has 5,141 runs at an average of 34.50 and also taken 132 wickets with his off-spin bowling.

Malik lost the captaincy of Pakistan after losing a limited-overs series to Sri Lanka at home last year.

He was at the center of a marriage controversy five years ago when he reportedly broke an engagement with Ayesha Siddiqui, who was from Mirza’s hometown in India.

The two had reportedly developed a friendship on the internet and Siddiqui’s father had even threatened to take Malik to court.

Malik has denied any serious relationship with Siddique.

The dashing cricketer was also linked with Indian actress Siali Bhagat, and there were reports of the two meeting confidentially in 2008.

Mirza ended a previous engagement to childhood friend Sohrab Mirza in January, citing incompatibility.

Newspapers reported that Malik first met Mirza at Hobart, Australia in January, when Pakistan was on tour and Mirza was in the city for a tennis tournament.

“It was after this meeting that Mirza’s engagement with her childhood friend broke,” Daily Jang newspaper reported.

It’s not the first time that a Pakistani cricketer will marry a high-profile Indian woman.

Former test batsman Mohsin Khan, now the national chief selector, married Indian actress Reena Roy in the 1980s. The marriage later broke down.

Diplomatic relations between Pakistan and India grew more tense after a terrorist attack in the Indian film and financial hub of Mumbai in November 2008. As a result, the India cricket team postponed its scheduled test tour to Pakistan due to security concerns.

The Pakistan government refused permission for its players to join the second edition of the Indian Premier League last year before the lucrative Indian domestic league was moved to South Africa.

Sporting relations deteriorated further when no Pakistani cricketers were picked up by Indian clubs in this year’s auction for the IPL.

Malik played for Delhi Daredevils in the inaugural 2008 IPL.

B) She knows that we dont give nationality unless proven loyal to us... thoda time lagay ga!!! :smokin:

chalo lets give her benefit of the doubt....she embraces the flag, and we can put her on a probationary period to prove herself. Time toh of course lagay ga. But no problem.

it's a gradual process, but loyalty is most important --more than anything else :)
