Malaika Arora has finally broken her silence after Arjun Kapoor announced their separation earlier this year. The news came during a Diwali party when Arjun confirmed that he is now “single,” sending fans and the media into a frenzy. While his statement quickly went viral, Malaika chose to stay quiet at the time.
For weeks, rumors had swirled about trouble in paradise, but Arjun’s confirmation put an official stamp on the speculation. Malaika, known for valuing her privacy, remained tight-lipped—much like during past difficult times, including the tragic loss of her father.
Now, in a candid interview, she’s opened up for the first time. Malaika admitted that she’s not one to air her personal life in public, much less on social media. “I’m a private person,” she shared, adding that Arjun’s decision to speak about their breakup was entirely his own.
Reflecting on her journey, Malaika described this year as particularly challenging. “It’s been tough, no doubt,” she admitted. But there’s a silver lining—she’s ready to move on. With the new year approaching, she’s focused on leaving the past behind and embracing a fresh start.
Malaika and Arjun, who began dating in 2018 after her divorce from Arbaaz Khan, were one of Bollywood’s most talked-about couples. Their chemistry and boldness in going public made headlines for years.
While it’s sad to see their relationship end, Malaika’s resilience shines through. Breakups are never easy, especially in the public eye, but she’s handling it with grace.
What do you think about Malaika’s approach? Should more celebrities take the same route when dealing with personal matters?
