A grainy YouTube video. Sania, aged 22, smashing her racket after a disputed line call. The old media caption read: Temper Tantrum . But Zoya had re-cut it with a hip-hop beat. Now it looked like a music video about righteous anger.

On the monitor, the raw footage dissolved into a montage.

A paparazzi shot from a Mumbai airport. Sania in oversized sunglasses, pushing a stroller with one hand, holding a WTA trophy bag in the other. The tabloids had called it "Sania, Supermom." But the raw clip showed her rolling her eyes at a journalist who asked about her weight.
