Basically, this is where the confusion about Malaika’s parentage is created. And to remove it, the past history of Malaika’s family has to be revisited.
According to a report in The Economic Times, Malaika’s biological father is Anil Arora. Deceased Anil Kuldeep Mehta is Malaika’s stepfather. Malaika’s biological father Anil Arora originally hails from Punjab. He worked in the Navy. In private life, Joyce was married to Polycarp. Malaika Arora and Amrita Arora were born in this family.
Malaika and Amrita use the biological father’s title. When Malaika was 11 years old, her parents separated. Two sisters grew up near their mother. Later Malaika’s mother Joyce married Anil Kuldeep Mehta. Malaika has a better relationship with her stepfather Anil Mehta than her biological father.
