Malaika Arora, a 52-year-old actor, has been in the spotlight for decades, but she's navigated it all with resilience. In a recent interview, she shared a candid conversation with her son Arhaan Khan, who was born in 2002 during her marriage to Arbaaz Khan. Arhaan, who often offers his mother thoughtful advice, shocked her by saying he doesn't want to get married and have kids due to the poor air quality in the world.
According to Malaika, Arhaan's reasons for not wanting to have kids were rooted in his concern for the environment. He told his mother, 'Why would I want to bring kids into this world with the AQI at 500 and AQI at 1000? Why would I want to do that?' Malaika was taken aback by her son's words, but she ultimately told him to do what makes him happy.
Arhaan's laidback Gen Z attitude has also influenced his mother's life. He often tells her to 'chill' and 'unwind,' and has even introduced her to the concept of 'lifemaxxing,' which means living life to the fullest. Malaika has come to appreciate her son's advice, saying that he often makes perfect sense.
