After confirming her split from Arjun Kapoor last year, Malaika Arora has now taken to social media with a cryptic yet telling post about valuing peace and self-respect over drama and conflict. The post has sparked fresh discussions among fans, many of whom believed that Malaika and Arjun were in it for the long haul.
Malaika’s post sparks speculation among fans
On Monday, Malaika posted on her Instagram Story, “The older you get, the more you choose calm over conflict and distance over disrespect. Drama becomes intolerable to you, and your peace becomes your ultimate priority. You start surrounding yourself with people who are good for your mental health, heart, and soul.”
The post quickly found its way to Reddit, where users speculated about its deeper meaning and connection to her past relationship. One user commented, “Thought her and Arjun would be endgame. Imagine Janhvi and Malaika as sisters-in-law.” Another wrote, “What she is realising in her 50s, I realised in my 20s. We are not the same,” while one more quipped, “She is still doing teenage stuff.”
Arjun confirmed breakup during Singham Again promotions
Malaika and Arjun made their relationship public in 2018 and often shared glimpses of their bond on social media. But in 2024, the couple parted ways. During the promotions of Singham Again, Arjun confirmed the split, stating simply that he was single.
Malaika later addressed Arjun’s statement in an interview with ETimes, saying, “I am a very private person, and there are certain aspects of my life which I don’t want to elaborate on much. 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. I think it is time for all of us to move on from whatever transpired in the year that went by. I am ready for the New Year and a new start in my life.”
With both Arjun and Malaika now firmly focusing on their individual journeys, it seems the chapter has been closed.
