Malaika Arora talks about relationships and changing perspectives
In an exclusive interview with Times Entertainment, Malaika said that her thoughts on love and relationships have evolved over time. “I think relationships are constantly changing. And I’m not a cynic. I’m a person… I believe in all of that, but I also feel like there’s no guarantee.”
I mean, we grew up with the idea of forever and ever, walking into the sunset. We all grew up with this idea because that’s the kind of movies we watched and books we read.
But I feel that this is not the case. That’s not it.”Arora added that people learn to accept change as life progresses. “I don’t think a lot of things are static. I think things are constantly changing. You kind of come to terms with things. You kind of adapt to situations.”
Malaika has often faced public attention about her personal life, but she has continued to speak out about her choices without changing her public image to fit outside opinions.
Arhaan Khan tells Malaika Arora that he will not get married
During the same conversation, Mallika spoke about her son Arhaan Khan and said that his views often differ from hers. She recalled him telling her: “Mom, I’m not getting married, are you? So please forget the fact that you’re going to have grandchildren.”When I asked him why, Arhan replied: “Why would I want to bring children into this world where the number of Al-Qaeda in Iraq is 500 and Al-Qaeda in Iraq is 1,000? Why would I want to do that?” She said he added, “It’s not worth it.”
Malaika said she responded with a question: “Are you crazy?” And I told him, “No, you have to try all of that.”Malaika also spoke to Pinkvilla about self-love. “I love myself. I will say that every day of my life, because I feel like if I don’t say that to myself I will never be able to be better. I will never be able to do things the way I want or enjoy life. I need to love myself first before I do anything else.”Mallika married Arbaaz Khan in 1998 after they met while shooting a coffee commercial. They separated on May 11, 2017, and had a son named Arhaan. On the work front, she was last seen in a special appearance in the song “Poison Baby” from the movie “Thamma”.
