Almost a year after Malaika Arora and Arjun Kapoor broke up, it looks like they are back on good terms once again. On Thursday, the Bollywood diva took to her Instagram handle and sent birthday wishes to her former beau.

Malaika Arora and Arjun Kapoor dated for nearly six years before calling it quits in 2024. Their breakup rumours first made headlines earlier this year after a source informed Pinkvilla that their relationship has 鈥渞un its course.鈥 鈥淢alaika and Arjun had a very special relationship and both of them will continue to hold a special place in each other鈥檚 hearts. They have chosen to part ways and will maintain a dignified silence in this matter. They won鈥檛 allow anyone to drag and dissect their relationship,鈥 the source claimed.
Later, netizens also noticed that Malaika also skipped Arjun Kapoor鈥檚 birthday bash and did not even wish him on social media. While the duo maintained a dignified silence on their breakup, Arjun, during a promotional event for Singham Again, addressed his relationship status. 鈥淎bhi single hoon main, relax,鈥 he told the reporters there.
Later, Malaika also opened up about ex-boyfriend Arjun鈥檚 鈥渟ingle鈥 statement and expressed her desire not to put her personal life in public for discussion. Speaking with the ETimes, she had said, 鈥淚 am a very private person, and there are certain aspects of my life which I don鈥檛 want to elaborate on much. I will never choose a public platform to talk about my personal life. So, whatever Arjun has said is entirely his prerogative.鈥
