In February 2009, it was confirmed that Ziana was pregnant with twins. [5] She gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl on 23 July 2009 in Shah Alam. [6] [ verification needed ]

In January 2010, after six months of absence, finally Ziana returned to public as a surprise guest in the second annual gathering of Murai.com to celebrate the launching of a new fashion segment, Stailista, in the web portal. [7] In that event, she stated that she would release two new singles from her upcoming untitled album. The singles, Pawana and Dirimu Satu, were expected to be released in June 2010. [8]

Furthermore, Ziana was one of the mentors in the fourth season of a singing competition called, Mentor.

[13] This was Ziana's second participation in theatre after Musical Theater Antara.

In 2011, Ziana Zain made some controversial remarks on Malaysian artist associations where she said the participation of Malaysian celebrities in these associations is just a waste of time. According to her, associations such as the Artists Association of Malaysia (Seniman), Karyawan Association (Karyawan) and Papita only serve the interests of a selected few and therefore should be disbanded. [14]
