Sania Mirza engaged to Indian business scholar Sohrab Mirza
Indian tennis star Sania Mirza has become engaged to 23-year-old Sohrab Mirza, a business scholar from her hometown of Hyderabad.

Sania is a youth icon in her country after she became the first Indian to win a WTA title and break into the world's Top 50 in 2005. (source: Reuters, photo: Ralf Reinecke)
