The family of Ayesha Siddiqui, who was reportedly married to Pakistani cricketer Shoaib Malik, reacted bitterly to the news that he would be marrying tennis star Sania Mirza.
Speaking to a newspaper, Ayesha's father Siddiqui, said, ‘He can marry anyone. What if he marries Hema Malini or Sridevi?’ Recalling the agony his family underwent after her daughter's failed marriage with Shoaib, Siddiqui, said ‘Shoaib married my daughter but refused to accept it. I know the mental agony my entire family had undergone and the amount of time it took for us to recover. We have already suffered a lot.”
Branding Shoaib as a cheat, Siddiqui also said, ‘I have nothing more to comment on him. Shoaib had met Ayesha at a restaurant in Dubai and took a liking to her as the two exchanged emails over a period of time, before getting married over the telephone.
