Malaika Arora and Arbaaz Khan’s son, Arhaan Khan, is currently hosting his own chat show. Recently, Arbaaz shared insights into Arhaan’s potential acting debut, noting that his son might require one to two years to feel adequately prepared for the transition.
In a conversation with Instant Bollywood, Arbaaz discussed his son’s future in the film industry. He emphasized that Arhaan is still young and prioritizing personal development. “Hopefully, he will take a year or two before he feels ready to take the plunge. I am sure he is going to be coming as an actor before he takes on anything else,” he expressed optimistically.
Malaika Arora, in a previous interview with Grazia India, elaborated on her parenting approach with Arhaan. She described herself as a strict yet supportive mother, emphasizing a balance between parenting and friendship. While not a hovering parent, she aims to establish a non-intrusive support system, ensuring Arhaan feels comfortable approaching her about anything. Malaika portrayed herself as fun and laid-back but underscored her serious commitment to her parenting role.
During her appearance on Arhaan’s talk show, *Dumb Biryani*, Malaika commented on her son’s resemblance to his father, Arbaaz Khan. This discussion was prompted when Arhaan jokingly asked about the traits he inherited from his dad that she appreciates or finds challenging. Malaika observed that Arhaan’s mannerisms closely resemble those of Arbaaz, highlighting their similar behaviors, such as scratching their ears and heads. While these traits might not be the most endearing, they reflect Arbaaz’s character. She also noted that Arhaan shares his father’s fairness and clarity of judgment—key traits that define Arbaaz’s personality.
Malaika Arora and Arbaaz Khan were married for 19 years before their divorce in 2017. Following their separation, Arbaaz married makeup artist Sshura Khan last year, while Malaika was previously in a relationship with Arjun Kapoor, which has since ended.
