Malaika Arora Breaks Silence On Her Age Controversy
The actress wrote, “My heart is full. Thank you all for the love, the wishes, and for making my 50th truly special. A special thank you to the wonderful people who helped me plan and create such a beautiful celebration.” Yes, you read that right – Malaika Arora turned 50 this year.
Along with her note, Malaika shared a series of stunning pictures from Goa, where she celebrated her birthday. In some photos, she was seen in a bright yellow dress, posing outdoors. Other pictures captured her cutting cakes and celebrating with her family and close friends. She appeared to have multiple parties.
Joining her on the special day were her mother Joyce Polycarp, sister Amrita Arora, and son Arhaan Khan. For the various parties, Malaika switched up her looks – from a black-and-white polka-dotted dress to a pink outfit and even a shimmering golden gown.
Reacting to the post, actress Shibani Akhtar dropped red hearts. Fabulous Lives vs Bollywood Wives star Seema Kiran Sajdeh commented, “Best ever.” Amrita Arora called it, “Best time ever.” Bipasha Basu wished, “Belated happy birthday.” Internet sensation Orry dropped a LOL reaction: “Sorry, I did not come. I did not get the invite.” Farah Khan wrote, “Happy birthday.”
Age Controversy Around Malaika's Birthday Celebration
In case you missed it, a Reddit post claiming Malaika Arora's age to be 52 read, "She celebrated her 46th birthday in 2019. That makes her 1973 born. By that logic her 50th birthday would have been 2023. But she celebrated her '50th' bday yesterday. I mean, how? If you are gonna mention your age on cakes and all, then how can you lie? Peak clown behavior."
Malaika celebrated her 49th bday in 2019 & 50th bday in 2025????
