Malaika Arora's life is like an open book, and she has always been honest about her life events. However, not much is known about her childhood. Now, in an interview with Grazia India, Malaika revealed that she had a tumultuous childhood and shared how the tough times in her life helped her in her professional journey. She spoke about her parents' separation and mentioned how it had helped her to become fiercely independent. In her words:
"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. 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."
Arhaan Khan, who is currently pursuing higher studies abroad since August 2021, shares a friendly bond with his mommy, Malaika Arora. The 20-year-old son dotes on his mother and never shies away from showering love on her. In the same interview, Malaika Arora described herself as a mom and revealed that she is a strict mother and shared how she maintains a balance between being a parent and a friend. She said:
"I'm no helicopter mom, but I am strict. I believe that I have managed to strike a balance between being a parent and being a friend. Arhaan knows he can talk to me about anything at any time. Children need to know that they have a non-intrusive support system. So I am fun, chilled out, and don't monitor his every move, but he knows that I mean business."
