Before we take you further into the story, let us take a look back at Sania Mirza's motherhood journey. It was on October 30, 2018, Sania Mirza and her husband, Shoaib Malik were blessed with a baby boy, whom they had named, Izhaan Mirza Malik. Sania, who is extremely close to her parents, had revealed in many media interactions that her son will take forward the name of 'Mirza family' and this is the reason why she chose Mirza as her son's middle name.
On December 8, 2020, Sania took to her Instagram handle and shared a lovely picture of her little boy enjoying the Christmas vibes on her Instagram story. In the picture, we can see Izhaan playing in the snow around the Christmas tree.

During the lockdown, Sania had shared an adorable picture with her son, Izhaan, which was clicked before one of her big matches. Alongside the picture, Sania had written a note that could be read as "My life in a picture! I wouldn’t have it any other way Allhamdulillah!

Ya, Shoaib is also playing quite a lot and is travelling so he does help whenever he can."
