Amrita Arora is a renowned name in the Hindi film industry. It was in 2002, when she debuted in Bollywood with the film, Kitne Door... Kitne Paas, opposite Fardeen Khan. Despite working with so many renowned filmmakers, Amrita couldn't shine in Bollywood, and she was last seen in the film, Ek Tho Chance, which was released back in 2009. Although she couldn't succeed like her sister, Malaika Arora, but she still has a massive fanbase of her own.
Amrita Arora has 1 million followers on her Instagram handle, and even after so many years of bidding farewell to acting, she is still the crush of many people in India. At the age of 43, Amrita still looks ravishing and never fails to grab eyeballs with her mesmerising photos in lovely outfits. She is often spotted partying with her sister, Malaika Arora and best friends, Karisma Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor Khan. Talking about Amrita Arora's personal life, she is leading a peaceful life away from showbiz with her husband, Shakeel Afzal Ladak.
For the uninitiated, Shakeel is a renowned businessman and the director of Redstone Group, which is a famous construction company. With an estimated net worth of Rs. 87 crore, Shakeel is a millionaire. Amrita and Shakeel got married on March 9, 2009, and they are blessed with two children, Azaan (born on February 5, 2010) and Rayaan (born on October 20, 2012).
Not everyone is aware of the fact that before Shakeel Afzal Ladak entered into Amrita Arora's life, she was madly in love with a cricketer. She was so much in love with him that she labelled him as the last love of her life. It was around 2004-2005 when Amrita was leading the headlines more for her personal life than professional front. The stunning diva fell in love with English cricketer, Usman Afzaal, of Pakistani origin.
In the beginning, it looked like a cooked-up story by the media, but it was Amrita Arora's appearance on Kaun Banega Crorepati that confirmed her and Usman Afzaal's dating reports. The actress was joined by her sister, Malaika Arora and her then-brother-in-law, Arbaaz Khan, on Amitabh Bachchan's game show, KBC. During a segment on the show, Amrita confirmed that she was in a relationship with Usman Afzaal and admitted that he is the right man for her. She said:

"I'm certain this is the man (Usman Afzaal) for me. We'll make it legal whenever it's the right time for both of us."
Once, in an old interview with the Hindustan Times, Amrita Arora talked about her then-boyfriend, Usman Afzaal and admitted that she would never fall in love again if they part ways in the future. Not only this, the actress also added that she would tell her parents to find a suitable match for her, but Usman would be the last love of her life. Unfortunately, in 2008, Amrita and Usman parted ways, reportedly due to long distance.
It was tough for Amrita Arora to recover from the pain of her breakup with Usman Afzaal. However, she pulled herself up and opened doors for love again in 2009. If the reports are to be believed, Amrita Arora and Usman Afzaal parted ways in 2008, and it was in 2009 that the actress got married to Shakeel Afzal Ladak. While it was Amrita's first marriage, Shakeel was previously married to her best friend, Nisha Rana. After divorcing Nisha, Shakeel fell in love with her best friend, Amrita and got married. Fast forward to 2024, and Amrita and Shakeel are leading a happy married life with their two sons, Azaan and Rayaan.
