Indian tennis player Sania Mirza has also slammed Pakistani actor Veena Malik for insinuating that she is a bad parent, for partying with her son in a hookah bar, and corrupting the Pakistan cricket team.
Pakistan’s humiliating loss to India in the ICC World Cup 2019 hasn’t gone down well with fans and more than the result, the supporters have complained about the lack of intent. In fact, some fans also released photos of players like Shoaib Malik, Imad Wasim and Wahab Riaz partying till late night on the eve of the game with Malik’s wife Sania Mirza giving them company. This has seen a war of words between Pakistan actress Veena Malik and Sania Mirza. Veena took to Twitter and questioned Sania’s parenting and expressed her concern for Sania’s son, being under the impression that the Tennis star had taken him to a sheesha place with her. Veena also suggested that the Tennis star should have stopped the players from eating junk food, knowing the importance of good nutrition herself. Hitting back at the actress, Sania clarified that neither did she take her son to the sheesha place nor is she Pakistan cricket team’s dietician to advise them on what to eat.Pakistani actress Veena Malik slams Sania Mirza for partying with Pak players, Sania hits back later.

Veena, reacting to a now deleted fan video which showed Sania, Shoaib and a few Pakistani cricketers enjoying a hookah, questioned Sania’s parenting. “Sania, I am actually so worried for the kid. You guys took him to a sheesha place isn’t it hazardious?”
Veena was reacting to Sania’s original tweet against the person who’d shared the video. Sania had reprimanded the fan for invading their privacy, and had written, “That’s the video you shot without asking us,disrespecting our privacy even though we had a child with us?& got told off for doing so,& u came up with this crap?FYI ‘outing’ was dinner & yes ppl are allowed to eat if they lose a match!Bunch of fools!Try better content nxt time.”
Responding to the Pak actor’s tweet, the tennis player wrote, “Veena,I hav not taken my kid to a sheesha place. Not that it’s any of your or the rest of the world’s business cause I think I care bout my son a lot more than anyone else does 🙂 secondly I am not Pakistan cricket team’s dietician nor am I their mother or principal or teacher to know when they sleep,wake up and eat .. thank you for your concern though .. means a lot.”
The original video showed Sania and Shoaib at the restaurant. They were joined by other Pakistani cricketers such as Wahab Riaz and Imam-ul Haq. Other fan tweets claim that the group was out and about till 2 am, mere hours before the match. Shoaib also reacted to the allegations in a tweet, writing, “Having served my country for +20 years in Intl Cricket, it’s sad that I have to clarify things related to my personal life. The videos are from 13th June and not 15th.”
Veena was previously involved in a controversy when she tweeted offensive remarks about Wing Commander Abhinandan, who was apprehended and released by Pakistani authorities after his plane crash landed in Pakistan. She was a contestant on Bigg Boss 4, and has appeared in several Indian films such as Daal Mein Kuch Kaala Hai and Gali Gali Mein Chor Hai.
