Social media users observe Izhaan's 'unhappy' mood at birthday celebration with Shoaib Malik

Former national cricketer Shoaib Malik is being targeted by social media users following his son Izhaan's sixth birthday celebrations.

The trolling erupted after former Indian tennis star Sania Mirza, Izhaan's mother, shared festive images from the party. The posttoo was deemed 'extravagant' by many social media users.

Subsequently Shoaib Malik, who recently arrived in Dubai, also posted photos from the birthday celebration on his social media accounts, showing him cutting the cake with Izhaan.

However, observers noted that Izhaan appeared less than joyful in the photos, prompting a wave of negative comments directed at Malik.

Users on social media once again expressed their support for Sania Mirza while condemning Malik and his new wife, actress Sana Javed.

Many comments criticised Malik for allegedly having an affair that led to the breakdown of his marriage with Mirza, suggesting he disrupted happy family life and left Izhaan uncomfortable in the presence of his father.

It is noteworthy that Shoaib Malik married Sania Mirza in 2010, and their son Izhaan was born in 2018.

However, the couple parted ways in 2023, with Malik marrying Sana Javed earlier this year.

Following their separation, Sania has been residing in Dubai with Izhaan.
