Who is Pakistani actress Sana Javed cricketer Shoaib Malik’s second wife?


In an unexpected revelation that has taken the world of sports and entertainment by storm, Pakistani cricketer Shoaib Malik has announced his second marriage to famed Pakistani actress Sana Javed. The revelation came amidst swirling rumors surrounding the status of his marriage with former Indian tennis sensation Sania Mirza. The sportsman took to social media, divulging images of his nuptials with Javed and sharing their joy with a message of gratitude that read, “Alhamdulillah ❤️ And We created you in pairs.” In the wake of this disclosure, the actress proceeded to modify her Instagram handle to Sana Shoaib Malik, a move signifying the beginning of their new journey together.

Born on the 25th of March, 1993, in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, Sana Javed embarked on her acting career in 2012, making her debut in the spiritual romantic drama series “Shehr-e-Zaat”, which also featured Mahira Khan in the lead role. The same year, she broadened her foray into the acting scene with her appearance in the television serial “Mera Pehla Pyar”. Her career trajectory then saw a rapid ascent as she featured in five more serials and a telefilm throughout 2013.

Over the years, Sana Javed has solidified her presence in the Pakistani television industry, participating in a myriad of esteemed projects, one of which includes “Zara Yaad Kar”. Yet, it was her compelling performance as Sanam Ali Khan in the drama series Khaani, directed by Anjum Shahzad, which propelled her into the limelight, leading to twin nominations at the Lux Style Awards in 2019.

Beyond her prominent role in Khaani, Javed’s portrayal of Sameera, a rape survivor in Rubina Ashraf’s crime drama “Ruswai”, merited widespread acclaim. This role garnered her the award for Best Television Actress (Critics Choice) at the 1st Pakistan International Screen Awards in 2020, and she was also chosen as the Favorite Actress in a Role at the ARY People’s Choice Awards in 2021. Adding another feather to her cap, in 2020, she took up the role of captain for the Islamabad Dragons team in the Jeeto Pakistan League, a special television event held during Ramadan.

However, Shoaib Malik and Sana Javed’s union isn’t the first high-profile relationship for Javed. The Siasat Daily notes that back in 2020, the actress tied the knot with singer Umair Jaswal in an intimate Nikah ceremony, but the marriage concluded shortly thereafter.

As for Shoaib Malik, his relationship background is equally eventful. In March 2023, acknowledging Javed’s 30th birthday, the cricketer shared a personal photograph with her on social media, accompanying it with a heartfelt “Happy Birthday Buddy @sanajaved.official 🎂”. This affectionate exchange hinted at their growing connection prior to the announcement of their marriage.

The situation surrounding Malik and his first wife, Sania Mirza, however, remains shrouded in speculation. As the rumours of their separation gained momentum, Mirza herself posted an enigmatic entry on her Instagram stories, reflecting on the complexities of marriage and divorce. The sports icon alluded to the tough choices and difficulties inherent in both unions and separations, encouraging her followers to “Choose [their] hard” wisely. The couple, who had tied the knot back in 2010, was known to reside together in the UAE.

As fans and followers come to terms with this startling development, many are keen to observe the new dynamic between Shoaib Malik and Sana Javed. With their wedding pictures circulating on social media and messages of congratulations pouring in, the couple has undeniably sparked a sensation throughout both Pakistan and beyond, leaving many eager to witness the next chapter in their lives.
