Arjun Kapoor and Malaika Arora have ended their relationship. Arjun recently confirmed the speculation during promotions for his upcoming film 'Singham Again', where he revealed he is single. Soon after a video of his candid statement circulated online, Malaika posted a cryptic quote about love, connection, and romance on her social media.

On Wednesday, Malaika shared a quote on her Instagram Stories that read, "Touching a heart for a second can touch a soul for a lifetime." The quote was followed by a simple "Good Morning" message. While she didn’t offer any further context, fans speculated about the timing, as it came just hours after Arjun's statement.
Arjun Kapoor's public statement
On Monday, Arjun attended a Diwali party hosted by politician Raj Thackeray at Mumbai's Shivaji Park, along with his 'Singham Again' co-stars. When someone from the crowd called out Malaika’s name, Arjun responded with a smile, saying, "Nahi abhi single hoon. Relax karo (No, I’m single now. Relax)."
Speaking to a person nearby, he continued, “Inhone 'tall aur handsome' bola, aisa lagraha hai ki shaadi ki baat karrahe hai. Isliye maine bola relax karo pehle (He said, 'Tall and handsome,' I felt he was talking about marriage. So I said relax).”
Malaika and Arjun’s relationship
Malaika and Arjun began dating in 2018, although they kept their relationship private, rarely speaking about it publicly. They shared glimpses of each other on social media during special occasions but preferred to maintain their relationship discreetly. According to reports, they quietly parted ways earlier this year. Arjun was seen visiting Malaika last month after her father, Anil Mehta, passed away.
Earlier this year, a source close to the couple shared with Pinkvilla, "Malaika and Arjun had a very special relationship, and both of them will continue to hold a special place in each other's hearts. They have chosen to part ways and will maintain a dignified silence on this matter. They won’t allow anyone to drag or dissect their relationship."
