About Arjun Kapoor and Malaika Arora

Malaika and Arjun started dating in 2018. Initially, the couple never opened up much about their relationship. However, they did regularly post romantic pictures from their vacations and wished each other on birthdays. In October last year, Arjun broke his silence on his relationship status with Malaika. At a Mumbai event, Arjun spoke to a crowd, and they screamed Malaika’s name repeatedly. Arjun had said, “Nahi abhi single hoon. Relax karo (No, I’m single now. Relax).”

Later, Malaika reacted to Arjun’s “I am single” remark and told Etimes, “I am a very private person, and there are certain aspects of my life that I don’t want to elaborate on. I will never choose a public platform to talk about my personal life. So, whatever Arjun has said is entirely his prerogative. I just want to say that, yes, it has been a very trying year for various reasons.”
