Sania will stay at Commonwealth Games Village, confirms family

New Delhi: The family of the Indian tennis star Sania Mirza today dismissed as rumours the buzz that she may not stay at the Commonwealth Games Village here.

While the international stars have started coming to Games Village, the latest buzz at the sprawling athletes’ facility was that Indian tennis stars Sania and Mahesh Bhupathi may not stay there.

It was said that Sania may prefer staying with husband Shoaib Malik — a former Pakistan cricket captain — and Bhupathi may stay with fiance Lara Dutta, a Bollywood actress.

When contacted, Sania’s father Imran said she will surely stay at the Games Village.

“She will check in to the Village with the rest of the team,” Imran told PTI.

Sania had recently come here along with Malik.

Bhupathi could not be reached for comment.
