Sania says no to Bangalore


Sania Mirza , the tennis sensation in India, has decided not to play in Bangalore Open. Sania is the top ranked Indian tennis player. She is currently world no 29. She didn’t had much success last year. Sania is always targeted by many people for her dress ,attitude and her behavior. Of late she has been on the news for lot of wrong reasons . Last year there was a strong protest against her filming for an ad in Jumma Masjid in Hyderabad . After which she apologized to the concerned persons. At the beginning of this year she is been haunted by another controversy this time in Australia. While playing in Australian open she was found to have insulted Indian national flag . She was found to sitting in such a position were her feet touches Indian national flag. This sparked strong protest against her.

Because of these events she was very depressed and decided not to play in Bangalore Open to avoid more controversies . She confirmed this officially . She said in a press interview that her agent has asked her not play in this tournament . This agency which takes care of her professional life is incidentally belongs to Mahesh Bhupathi.

Her withdrawal from the Open has again lead to many diverse reactions from the critics . Many feel that it is wrong on Sanias part to decide like this.

Even if she plays or not she is always a source of news for many people………….
