Description

In our pookiest episode, Sunil Chhetri sits down with Sania Mirza for a conversation that goes beyond the football field. He opens up about the pressures of early fame, the day he almost quit after being heckled and hit with bottles at 17, and the scary ways in which he deals with failure - all while reflecting on the discipline, mischief-filled childhood, and his mother’s tough love that shaped him into India’s most celebrated football captain.

Serving It Up With Sania is a relaxed, conversational podcast hosted by global sports icon Sania Mirza, where each episode is a rally between laughter and honesty, as Sania sits down with fellow athletes, influential personalities, and close friends to explore universal themes like resilience, parenthood, identity, and breaking societal norms.

It’s spontaneous, candid, and delightfully bold, offering the kind of insights and truths that rarely make it past PR. Serving It Up With Sania is where real stories take center court. 

Unscripted. Unfiltered. And always engaging.
