Malaika Arora and Amrita Arora’s father, Anil Arora, has passed away, with the cause of death being an apparent suicide. The tragic news comes just a day after World Suicide Prevention Day, adding to the shocking nature of the event. Further details are yet to be confirmed.
Malaika Arora’s former husband, Arbaaz Khan, was seen arriving at her residence to express his condolences and offer support to the family during this difficult time.
Reflecting on her past, Malaika has previously shared insights about her upbringing and the challenges she faced following her parents’ separation. She recalled, “I had a wonderful childhood, but it wasn’t easy. In fact, in retrospect, the word I would use to describe it is tumultuous. But tough times teach you important lessons too.”
She also highlighted how her parents’ separation shaped her understanding of independence, stating, “My parents’ separation allowed me to observe my mother through a new and unique lens. I learned a rock-steady work ethic and the value of getting up each morning to do whatever it takes to become fiercely independent. Those early lessons are the cornerstones of my life and professional journey. I am still fiercely independent; I value my freedom and live life on my terms.”
The unexpected news of Anil Arora’s death reached Malaika while she was reportedly in Pune. She promptly left for Mumbai upon hearing the distressing news.
Authorities have confirmed that the body has been sent for a post-mortem, and an investigation is currently underway. Speaking to Zoom, DSP Raj Roshan stated, “Yes, it is true. Prima facie it is suicide; our team is at the spot investigating for further details. Mr Arora is no more.”
