Daboo Malik Reveals He Failed As Dad, Recalls Asking 15-Year-Old Amaal To Earn, 'Failed As Father'

Earlier this year, Amaal Malik took to his IG handle and dropped a post, announcing his decision to part ways with his family. While he deleted the post quickly, the flame was already fanned. Following this, Amaal kept up with his silence, while his father, Daboo often spoke about the same. In several interviews, he admitted making some mistakes and took accountability for the pain these incidents might have caused Amaal. He again discussed this in a recent interview, revealing that he had asked a 15-year-old Amaal to earn money.

Daboo Malik talks about being at fault as a father to Amaal Malik

Daboo Malik recently sat for an interview with Faridoon Shahryar, wherein he said that the statement was meant for someone else, and Amaal's love for his dad is unfathomable. Daboo further stated that the fact that the statement was meant for a certain family member was seen as against the family. Daboo further added that Amaal's statement, in a way, opened their eyes, and they realised the mistakes they had made over the years. He mentioned that no matter what, he and his wife, Jyoti, have to take the blame, as they were at fault. Stating that sometimes parents can be wrong, Daboo Malik said:

"His statements opened our eyes. We realised the mistakes we made. That is where we solidified our relationship. Sometimes, we aren’t able to say things to our own people, you need a medium to break out when things are really going wrong. And, things were going wrong. Me and Jyoti have to take the blame, we were wrong. Maa baap se galti hosakti hai."

Daboo Malik says that he and his wife both failed as parents to Amaal Malik

Going further in the interview, Daboo mentioned how much people can ignore the fact that some of their deeds are affecting their kids. Stating that he was biased, Daboo shared that he had made a mistake, and after Amaal released the statement, for the next 15 days, he was with his son, sharing the same bed, conversing with him about what had happened and how it affected him. He also mentioned that he was not a mature father, and he and his wife both failed as parents. Daboo mentioned:

"The next 15 days after that, I was in bed with him continuously after 4am. Forget staying in the house, I was in bed with him, because I should at least know what happened. I was not a mature father. I was going through my own problems. I failed as a father and Jyoti failed as a mother."

In the same interview, Daboo mentioned that the problem with them was that Amaal became the parent of the house for them and as well as for Armaan. He said that he wanted someone to be a singer in the family, so the financial crunches could be avoided, but by doing the same, they ignored another child in their home, who wanted to be a star too.

Daboo Malik asked his elder son, Amaal to earn when he was only 15 years old

In the same interview, Daboo stated that a moment came in his life when he had a huge steep fall. Daboo recalled that Amaal was only 15 years old back then, and he saw his father hugging him and asking him to save the family. Daboo stated that while Amaal reassured him that he would do something and earn, he was actually too small to understand the gravity of the situation. Daboo could be quoted as saying:

"An innocent 15-year-old child saw that his father came to him, hugged him, and said, ‘Something similar is happening to me what happened to my father once, you’ll have to save us’. Uss chotte bache ko kaisa laga hoga. But he held my hand and said, ‘Dad, I’ll earn’. Armaan was too small to even understand the gravity of the situation."
