After the engagement, we realised we were completely incompatible although we had known each other for around six years and our families have been friends for three generations. The broken engagement didn't come out of the blue. I saw it coming!"
He also slammed the rumours of him not being able to adjust to Sania’s celebrity status. He said:

In fact. there was also the rumour that Sohrab and his family wanted Sania to leave her tennis career after marriage, but Sania’s father was against this demand of his daughter, sacrificing her career for love. Such misunderstandings piled up and the couple finally decided to call off their engagement.
