Social media erupted in a frenzy as cricketer Shoaib Malik and actress Sana Javed shared glimpses of their recent birthday celebration, drawing both admiration and criticism from netizens. The couple, who recently tied the knot, celebrated Sana Javed’s 31st birthday in style, but their joyous occasion was met with a barrage of trolling and negative comments online.
The birthday festivities, captured in a series of photos shared on Sana Javed’s Instagram handle, depicted a romantic evening arranged by Shoaib Malik for his wife. The couple celebrated at a restaurant adorned with red and black balloons, with a table decorated elegantly with a bouquet of red roses.
Shoaib, playing the role of the doting husband, surprised Sana with a customized daisy-themed cake, adding a touch of sweetness to the occasion. In the photos, Shoaib was seen feeding cake to Sana, showcasing their affectionate bond on her special day.
Expressing her gratitude, Sana shared the moments on Instagram, captioning the post with heartfelt words of appreciation for her husband.
However, the couple’s happiness was overshadowed by the relentless trolling they faced from certain sections of social media. It appears that some netizens have not forgiven Shoaib Malik and Sana Javed for their past relationships, particularly Shoaib’s marriage to tennis star Sania Mirza and Sana’s association with singer Umair Jaswal.
Commenters took jabs at the couple, labeling them as the “most hated couple in 2024” and making disparaging remarks about their relationship. Some resorted to making distasteful comparisons between Sana and Shoaib’s previous partners, including one comment that crudely likened Sana to a “remote” and Sania Mirza to a “TV.”
Despite the negativity, the couple’s fans rallied to their defense, emphasizing the importance of respecting their personal lives and celebrating their happiness.
