Arjun Kapoor on supporting Malaika after father’s death: Will be there no matter what…
Actor Arjun Kapoor opens up about his decision to support former partner Malaika Arora during her family crisis. He reflected deeply on his approach to relationships shaped by personal traumas and past experiences.

Actor Arjun Kapoor recently spoke about his decision to support his former partner Malaika Arora after the death of her father Anil Mehta. Despite their breakup, Arjun was one of the first to reach Malaika’s maternal home to offer condolences and support to the family. He said he wanted to honor the emotional bond shared between them and consider how their past experiences have influenced their approach to relationships.
In an interview on Raj Shamani’s podcast, Arjun Kapoor revealed that his personal experiences, including his mother’s death and his parents’ separation, have shaped his outlook on relationships.
He admitted to entering relationships with the assumption that they would not last. Arjun revealed that he has gone through many ‘ups and downs’ in his personal life recently, and one can never be sure that the ‘right’ person will be around for a long time.
When Arjun was asked about his decision to support Malaika during her difficult times, Arjun cited an instinctive impulse, similar to the one he experienced when his father’s wife, Sridevi, passed away in 2018 . He emphasized that he always tries to be there for the people he is with whether it is good times or bad, he has an emotional bond with him.
“When what happened with dad and Khushi-Janhvi, there was an impulse. And in this case too, there was an instinct and impulse. If I have created an emotional bond with someone, I would always want to believe that I would Regardless of the good and the bad, if I’m invited for the good, I’ll be there and if I’m needed for the bad, I’m not a person who has a lot of friends. If that person doesn’t want me there, so I’ll keep my distance like I used to before,” Arjun Kapoor said
Arjun also discussed the challenges of maintaining privacy in relationships in the current media environment. She added that although she is a private person, it is often wise to be open about relationships to avoid speculation and misunderstandings. He mentioned that initially he was hesitant to join social media but his peers encouraged him to do so.
Apart from this, Arjun confirmed his breakup with Malaika during an event during the promotion of his film Singham Again and said that he is currently single. Despite their separation, they reiterated their commitment to being there for the people they care about, highlighting the importance of emotional bonds in their lives.
