In a recent talk, Sania Mirza had revealed that she will be happy, no matter the newborn kid is a boy or a girl. The tennis star also added that her only wish is to deliver a healthy kid.
"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. Besides that, to believe in yourself and always know that you have the freedom to be whoever you are. At this point, with regard to my baby, all I truly hope, pray and wish is, for it to be healthy, regardless of the gender," Sania Mirza was quoted as saying by New Indian Express.
As Sania has now delivered a baby boy, she is now expected to start her preparations soon for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.
