About this listen

In this episode, two sports champions sit across from each other and, between moments of easy banter, Sania Mirza gets Yuvraj Singh to reflect on the defining chapters of his life. From winning a World Cup while his body was failing, to being diagnosed with cancer at the peak of his career and being told he had three to six months to live, Yuvraj talks about resilience, anger, fear, and performing through pain under constant scrutiny.

He also speaks about the period when cricket stopped bringing him joy, why stepping away became necessary, and how mentoring younger players reshaped his journey, touching on childhood expectations, fatherhood, recovery after illness, and learning how to move forward on his own terms.

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.
