Meet Vijay Mallya's Son-In-Law, Samar Singh, Worked As A Banker, Reportedly Settled In The US

Fugitive businessman, Vijay Mallya is again in the news after Royal Challengers Bangalore lifted the winner's trophy in 2025. For the unversed, RCB was founded by Vijay in 2008, and the team’s victory brought the businessman into the limelight. But when the ‘King of Good’ Times graced Raj Shamani’s podcast, people went into a frenzy.

Just like his professional life, Vijay Mallya’s personal life, too, has often been in the limelight. From his multiple marriages to adopting his second wife’s daughter, Vijay has always stayed in the headlines. While everyone knows about Vijay’s son, Siddharth Mallya, very few people know that he is the father of three daughters. 

Vijay has two biological daughters from his second marriage to Rekha Mallya and an adopted daughter, Laila Mallya, who is Rekha’s daughter from her previous marriage. Laila is married to Samar Singh, who prefers to remain out of the limelight. So, let us delve into some details about Vijay Mallya’s lesser-known son-in-law.

Vijay Mallya’s son-in-law, Samar Singh is an investment banker

Vijay Mallya’s son-in-law, Samar Singh studied at GD Somani School and then graduated from Sydenham College. He then went on to work in Tanzania as an investment banker. As per multiple reports, Samar also managed a Stock Trading and Finance business in Mumbai.

Vijay Mallya’s son-in-law, Samar Singh is the close friend of Sharad Pawar’s nephew, Parth Pawar

In 2019, Samar Singh was seen helping NCP leader Parth Pawar with a marketing campaign for the Lok Saba elections. Parth Pawar is the son of Maharashtra’s former deputy chief minister, Ajit Pawar and nephew of NCP supremo Sharad Pawar. Many Congress leaders blamed Parth for his liaison with fugitive businessman Vijay Mallya’s son-in-law.

Many reports also stated that Samar Singh also handles Parth Pawar’s social media. However, when fingers were raised on Parth, the politician gave a befitting reply and said:

“Samar and I have been friends for a long time. He campaigns for me like my other friends. Why should he be blamed for Mallya's wrongdoings? He is also returning to the US."

Many other sources close to Parth took Samar’s side and shared that Samar and Parth have known each other for ages and are close friends. He joined Parth for rallies out of curiosity and to witness his friend contest for the election. The source also claimed that Samar and his wife, Laila are not in much contact with Vijay Mallya or his family.

Who is Laila Mallya and her controversial relationship with Lalit Modi

Daughter of Vijay Mallya’s second wife, Rekha, Laila was adopted by Mallya when he married Rekha. A graduate of Bentley University, Waltham, Laila Mallya is a Vogue stylist and a jewellery designer and her jewellery line is called Social Butterfly.

Laila Mallya came to the spotlight when businessman Lalit Modi’s controversy broke out. When the Income Tax department raided the hotel of Lalit Modi, an unknown woman was seen walking away with some documents. This led the authorities to Laila Mallya. At that moment, people got to know that Laila was Lalit Modi’s personal assistant. Giving a statement to the press about Laila’s connection with Lalit Modi, Vijay Mallya said:

“My step daughter Laila Mahmood works for Lalit Modi. I know nothing about this. I called Lalit Modi and he confirmed that she has given a statement to Income Tax.”

As per multiple reports, Laila Mallya and her husband, Samar Singh, currently reside in the US.
