On Saturday, Shoaib posted a picture on social media platform X (formerly Twitter) with his new wife Sana, with the words "And We created you in pairs". This is his third marriage - the first one was with Ayesha Siddiqui.

Sana has acted in a number of TV shows, and was first seen on screen in 2012 with drama series Shehr-e-Zaat and Mera Pehla Pyar. In 2017, she made her movie debut with the socio-comedy film Mehrunisa V Lub U. 

Days earlier, Sania had posted a cryptic message on Instagram, which read: "When something disturbs the peace of your heart , let it go." 

As for Sania and Shoaib's separation, Sania's father Imran Mirza told PTI that "it was a 'khula'", which refers to the right of a Muslim woman to unilaterally divorce her husband.
