In her long letter, Sania Mirza penned her feelings about people's perception of a female sportsperson, making a comeback in the court/field. Excerpts of her letter can be read as "Dear mothers, it is often said that that a woman has to choose between becoming a mother and chasing her dreams. Today, I write this letter sharing my journey and also a little bit of inspiration I got from Serena Williams and her journey. I want to dedicate my words to the wonderful mothers and strong mothers who have dared to dream and each day have strived to maintain a balance between motherhood and their professions. To a world that stereotypes women as homemakers it often comes as a surprise if one succeeds in fulfilling her dreams and career with sheer grit and determination."

Further in her letter, Sania Mirza talked about experiencing pregnancy and what an amazing feeling it was. She also talked about how it was to make a comeback in the court afterwards. Her letter could be further read as "Pregnancy is something I had experienced for the first time in my life. I thought about it, and I think we all have a certain picture about it, but once you experience it, you really understand what it means. It absolutely changes you as a human being. It's an extraordinary thing. It's an experience I recommend women should  go through because it really does teach you to respect yourself and your body but also teaches you the selfless kind of love that at least I never knew existed for me."

Me as a working woman, I obviously want to get back to tennis, so I am trying to prioritise my time. It is the most selfless kind of love I have ever known, and it is the most amazing feeling I have ever had. My life has completely changed for the better. Ya, Shoaib is also playing quite a lot and is travelling so he does help whenever he can."
