Malaika Arora’s parents parted ways when she was 11, and after her parents’ divorce, Malaika moved to Chembur with her mother and sister, Amrita Arora. Malaika’s mother, Joyce, is a Malayali Christian, and her father, Anil Arora, was a Punjabi Hindu. In an interview with a leading publication, Malaika talked about her parent's separation and said:
“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.”
May Anil Arora’s soul rest in peace.
