Recently in an interview, Sania Mirza stated that she is not bothered about the gender of her unborn child, and is praying for the baby's good health. "I think as an expectant mother the most important message that I want to give not just to my child but to every child is that you have to follow your dreams whatever they are even if they are out of the box or out of the ordinary, you have to believe in yourself. And obviously if it is only my child, I would hope, pray and wish for it to be a healthy child. It doesn't matter if it is a boy or a girl, which seems to be very important for a lot of people." Sania got married to Pakistani cricketer Shoaib Malik in 2010.
