Arjun Kapoor recently opened up battling trolls and comments about dating Malaika, he told HT, “The decision to come out and be open about our relationship was not something that was planned.”

Kapoor further added, “It’s not like we spoke about it. It happened organically. We allowed things to happen after a certain point when we felt we were solid and steady enough to face all the speculation and all the conversation that would come our way because that would be temporary.”

Arjun said that they stood by each other under the judgements and the toxicity, “We stood by each other through this relationship, facing speculation, facing brickbats, facing chatter, unnecessary at times, because of social media toxicity. It was hell for us for many days. She had to face so much because of the fact that we came out in the open, but I admire her for giving me and our relationship so much dignity. Standing by Malaika never felt like it’s something extraordinary. It felt just the right thing, the most natural thing to do.”

Arjun is also proud to be ‘first of our kind where we showed age is not of any consequence when you love someone.’
