Malaika Arora on Arjun Kapoor’s ‘I am single’ statement
Malaika Arora called Arjun Kapoor’s viral ‘I am single’ statement his prerogative and said, “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.”

Even after their breakup, when Malaika Arora’s father passed away, Arjun Kapoor was there to support the actor during the difficult time. Talking about the same, Arjun Kapoor told Raj Shamani in a recent interview, “In life, without going into one instance, I’d like to say when what happened with Khushi, Janhvi, there is an instinct and impulse. In this case, also, there is an instinct and impulse. If I formed an emotional bond with somebody, I’d always lie to believe that I’d be there regardless of the good and the bad…I’m not somebody who is doing this for all and sundry. If I feel an emotion with someone, it will be there for life.”
Summary: Malaika Arora finally addressed Arjun Kapoor’s recent comment about being single, stating that it’s time to move on, signaling a new chapter in her life.
