Couple of the Month: Malaika Arora Khan & Arbaaz Khan

Comments  Comments [ 1 ]    By Gurprit K. | 27 January 2015 | 10:42pm


Coffee was not the only thing brewing when they first met at a shoot for an advertisement in 1993. Sparks began to fly between the ever elegant Malaika Arora Khan and the charismatic Arbaaz Khan then, and they recently celebrated their 16th anniversary! This month, BollyCurry lets the power couple take centre stage.

The versatile actors both hail from very different backgrounds. Malaika's parents had no connection to the Bollywood industry. Her father, Anil, was a Navy officer while her mother, Joyce, was a homemaker. On the other hand, Arbaaz is the son of well-known screenwriter Salim Khan. Malaika made her debut in 1993 with the film Aaja Meri Jaan, and Arbaaz made his three years later as the villain in the thriller film Daraar, which won him the Filmfare Award for Best Performance in a Negative Role.

Cupid struck when the pair were shooting a commercial for Mr. Coffee in 1993. Both claim that it was love at first sight, and they found themselves madly in love with each other. Their courtship lasted five years, and they finally tied the knot on 12th December 1998. The wedding was a lavish but private affair at a chapel in Maharashtra with only close family and friends in attendance. Soon after the wedding, Arbaaz took his lady love to the Maldives. The couple was blessed with a son, Arhaan, in 2002.

Like any other married couple, they have faced some ups and downs in their relationship. In 2012, a Land Cruiser belonging to Arbaaz rammed into a 70-year-old lady, and ended up taking her life. Arbaaz claimed not to be in the vehicle, and when the elderly lady's family asked for compensation, refused to pay as the family had disowned the lady. Everything was sorted out in the end, and the driver of the car was released on bail after he accepted that he lost control of the vehicle.

Despite the few problems they have faced, this stunning B-Town couple is going strong and are extremely happy both on their personal and professional fronts. We, at BollyCurry, sincerely wish this successful duo all the best for the future.
