Sania Mirza’s Season 2: Sonakshi and Zaheer’s 7-Year Love
Sania Mirza returns with Season 2 of Serving It Up With Sania, welcoming Sonakshi Sinha and Zaheer Iqbal Khan for pickleball and a seven-year love story.
Sania Mirza is back behind the mic for Serving It Up With Sania Season 2, and her first guests are the kind of pairing Bollywood fans will not want to miss: Sonakshi Sinha and Zaheer Iqbal Khan. The episode, produced by IVM Podcasts, is live now, with new conversations set to follow every Friday.
Pickleball leads into the personal
The show’s format is a big reason it works. Sania plays a round of pickleball with her guests before the conversation turns deep. Sonakshi and Zaheer, both pickleball fans, joined her on court, and Sania was clearly impressed. After the game she said, “You guys were the best pickleball players we’ve had now for all the seasons that we’ve had.”
That playful start opens the door to a rare kind of Bollywood conversation. The couple reflected on their seven-year relationship, including the first five-and-a-half-hour conversation that brought them together, and the experience of working as a married pair.
What Sonakshi said about working with Zaheer
Sonakshi did not hold back on the difference a familiar co-star makes. She said on-screen romance has always been “the toughest thing ever,” but sharing that space with her husband makes it easier. “It just eases you out when you have your person around you.” She was careful to add that work time remains work time.
The episode also touches on Sonakshi’s changing relationship with travel. Years of moving for work, roughly 25 to 30 weeks a year, left her wanting to do less. As she put it, so much professional travel made her want to simply stop and not do anything.
Why Sania returned for Season 2
The new season is part of a bigger shift for Sania Mirza. She said podcasting was not something she was sure she would enjoy, but long-form conversations brought her around. “The success and response to Season 1 gave me even more reason to come back with Season 2.” After years on the tennis court, she is treating this as a fresh innings.
That matters for Bollywood viewers because it creates space for stars to talk beyond a two-minute red-carpet soundbite. Sonakshi and Zaheer’s appearance is a good example: it mixes sport, marriage and career in one unhurried episode. For an audience that follows stars as closely as films, the draw is access minus the usual red-carpet filter. Pickleball brings out an unguarded side, and Sania’s ease on court makes the competition feel natural rather than staged.
