Arjun Kapoor Lauded For Supporting Malaika Arora At Father’s Funeral
Malaika Arora Father's Funeral: Malaika Arora has been in the spotlight following the tragic death of her father, Anil Mehta. On the morning of September 11, Anil Mehta took his own life by jumping off the terrace of his Bandra residence. Malaika, who was in Pune at the time, rushed to Mumbai upon hearing the news. Before she arrived, Arjun Kapoor was already at the scene and stayed with her until late at night. The next day, during the funeral, Arjun continued to support Malaika.
Videos from Anil Mehta's funeral have gone viral, showing Arjun Kapoor standing steadfastly with Malaika Arora. Dressed in white to mourn the loss, Arjun was seen alongside Malaika throughout the ceremony. This sparked speculation among fans about their relationship status, while many praised Arjun for his unwavering support. One post captioned it as "Arjun is again snapped with Malaika standing with her like a pillar in tough times."

Social media users have been quick to commend Arjun Kapoor for his support during this difficult time. Comments ranged from admiration to comparisons with others present. One user wrote, "Every girl needs a partner like Arjun," while another said, "Arjun is gem of a person." However, some pointed out that Arbaaz Khan arrived before Arjun. One comment read, "Arjun to baad me aaya tha sabse pehle Arbaaz Khan aaya tha," and another added, "Yehi time hai apne partner ko support dene ka unka bura waqt hai."
Malaika Arora was previously married to Arbaaz Khan, and they share a son named Arhaan. They were married in 1998 and divorced in 2017. Post-divorce, Malaika began dating Arjun Kapoor. Despite rumours of their breakup after years of dating, sources close to them confirmed they ended their relationship respectfully. It remains to be seen if they will reconcile.
Arbaaz Khan's presence at the funeral also drew attention. Some netizens noted his early arrival compared to others. Despite this, much of the focus remained on how steadfastly Arjun supported Malaika during this challenging period.
The public's reaction has been mixed but largely supportive of both Malaika and those who stood by her side during this tragic event. The emotional weight of losing a parent is immense, and having close ones nearby can make a significant difference.
The incident has brought back into focus the personal lives of these celebrities and how they navigate through such trying times publicly and privately.
