Arjun Kapoor and Malaika Arora may have gone their separate ways now, but their relationship once stood as one of Bollywood’s most talked-about romances. In a throwback episode of Koffee with karaan 8, Arjun had opened up about the thought and care that went into making their bond public. Reflecting on the emotional weight of their relationship, he revealed how he always put his loved ones first and approached the journey with sensitivity and respect—for Malaika’s past, her son, and the world they were stepping into together.
Taking Baby Steps
The actor opened up about taking things slow when making his relationship with Malaika public. He said he always prioritised his close ones before himself and wanted to ease everyone into it, including the public. Acknowledging Malaika’s past and her son, Arjun shared that the decision wasn’t rushed but made with mutual understanding. He added that his family supported him and made the transition easier, reassuring him that he didn’t need to overthink it.
Marriage plans
When Karan asked him about his future with Malaika, the actor chose to be respectful and guarded. He said that while he was happy in the relationship, he didn’t feel it was fair to talk about the future without Malaika being present. Arjun added that they had gone through a lot together to reach a comfortable and happy space, and when the time was right, they would speak about it as a couple. He emphasised that it wouldn’t be right to discuss their future plans alone, out of respect for their bond.
A Bond Built on Understanding
The ex-couple made their relationship Instagram official in 2019 after dating for some time. Reflecting on their bond, Arjun once said that being from the same industry helps them understand each other’s work pressures better. He shared that Malaika has always been supportive, understands his emotions, and knows exactly what to say to keep him grounded during tough times.
