Sania Mirza 1, Haters 0. Don't Miss This Ace From The Tennis Champ

Tennis superstar Sania Mirza has often been a target of sexist comments on social media

NEW DELHI: When you are successful and accomplished, you would assume everyone around you is nothing but full of praise for you. But no. There is no dearth of haters in the world.

Turns out being rank #1 in women's double tennis isn't enough as even Sania Mirza isn't spared from negative remarks about her looks. The tennis champ took to Instagram to slam such people who choose to comment about her appearance and not her talent.

"That look you give when someone tells you how photogenic you are and look so 'different and nice' in pictures compared to life," she wrote.

Her fans came forward in support of her post which was liked over 20,000 times in an hour.

"My dear Sania, you actually look more beautiful and a natural beauty in real. Had met up with you at Mainland China years ago and you were stunning as always. We are very proud of you!!" wadsvivacious99wrote on Instagram.

"You are beautiful in each and every look," said another comment.

Dear Haters, save the backhanded compliments because ain't nobody got time for that!

Kong: Skull Island Movie Review - Tom Hiddleston's Film Revives King Kong With 70s-Era Style

Terry Notary in Kong: Skull Island Genre: Sci-Fi Cast: Terry Notary, Tom Hiddleston, Samuel L. Jackson, Brie Larson, John C. Reilly Director: Jordan Vogt-Roberts 'Mark my words. There will never be a more screwed-up time in Washington." Thus speaks Bill Randa (John Goodman), a scientist who at the beginning of Kong: Skull Island arrives at the Capitol in 1973 to secure funding for a mission to a mysterious island in the South China Sea, perpetually shrouded in thunderstorms, hitherto un-mapped and unexplored. His mission: to locate one of filmdom's most iconic characters and make him relevant for audiences inured to the usual ho-hum of crashes, car chases and explosions of solar-level size and ferocity. And, against all odds, he succeeds: Kong: Skull Island is a big, noisy B-movie infused with moments of wit and sprightly visual sophistication, anchored by what surely must be the most enormous version of King Kong since th...
