Bollywood actress and fitness enthusiast Malaika Arora has recently opened up about her thoughts on love and the possibility of getting married again. MA, who has been in a relationship with actor Arjun Kapoor for over two years now, spoke candidly about her views on love and relationships in a recent interview. Malaika, who was previously married to actor-producer Arbaaz Khan, said that she still believes in the institution of marriage and would consider getting married again.
When the portal asked Malaika if she wants to get married again, she responded by saying, “Of course, I have thought about it. People think that I might be cynical about getting married again, but that’s far from true. I believe in the institution, I believe in love and companionship…All of it. I can’t answer when I will get married again, because I believe in leaving some aspects of one’s life as a surprise and not planning too much. Planning things constantly sucks the joy out of life.”
As the conversation progressed further, the ‘Chaiyya Chaiyya’ fame actress shed some light on her idea of “a perfect relationship”. She explained, “I believe that we romanticise the whole idea of love, because, growing up, that is what we have seen in films or read in books. I am a realist and I know that there’s no such thing as the ‘perfect’ relationship you need to work on it. If you are able to connect with someone and be yourself, then that relationship is worth staying in.”
The 49-year-old actress then added, “To be honest, ideal relationships don’t exist. I believe every relationship is flawed and has its ups and downs…You just have to take the good with the bad and make it work. When I was 18 years old, I thought that I would make my relationship work for the rest of my life, but little did I know that people can sometimes grow apart. It isn’t fair to me or my partner if we can’t be ourselves and be honest about our feelings. It’s not easy, but I think certain things need to be done sometimes.”
Besides this, the actress-turned-entrepreneur also spoke about what is Malaika like when she is in love. While calling herself “someone who revels and thrives in love,” Malaika Arora said, “A lot of people say that love doesn’t last forever, but I believe it is eternal. Being a hardcore romantic, I believe that when there’s love, you can overcome and conquer any hurdle.”
She concluded by saying, “I adapt beautifully in a relationship, and it is important for me to grow together with my partner. Changing in love is not an essential part of being in it. While you make adjustments and sacrifices, you are not supposed to change yourself…In fact, you must retain the parts of yourself that you recognise.”
