Malaika Arora frequently makes headlines, whether for her fashion statements or her personal relationships. Recently, rumours about her breakup with Arjun Kapoor grabbed attention, adding to the scrutiny she’s faced, particularly over the age gap between her and Arjun. Earlier, Malaika was also subject to criticism following her divorce from Arbaaz Khan.
In a recent interview, Malaika opened up about how she handles criticism regarding her personal life and professional choices. She admitted, “In the best way I can. There are times when you feel things don’t bother or affect me, but of course they do.”
Malaika went on to explain how she has learned to cope with negativity, saying, “I have also figured out a way to deal with it, get strong about it and not let it pull me down, govern me or get the better out of me. I have figured out a way to insulate me to all of it. Yes, it’s part and parcel of our lives—there is constantly something, criticism, trolling—but you just need to block out the noise, the negativity, and move on with whatever is positive in your life.”
Rumours about Malaika and Arjun’s breakup surfaced earlier this year, particularly after Malaika missed Arjun’s birthday celebration in June and didn’t acknowledge him on social media, fueling speculation. Later, their cold interaction at a public event further hinted at a possible breakup.
