Arjun recalled struggling with loneliness in 2014 while his career was on the rise. He shared that the loss of his mother and his sister’s relocation had left him feeling isolated at the time. Looking back, he expressed that while he is in a different headspace now, he realized the importance of addressing his mental well-being.

Arjun explained that he had to prioritize self-care, clarifying that he doesn’t see this as selfishness. He pointed out that his feelings of unease stemmed not only from loneliness but also from various life events and relationships he’d been through. The Ishaqzaade actor emphasized that he didn’t want his personal struggles to negatively affect his relationships or his partner. He believes that while relationships are fulfilling, individuals need to work on their personal issues independently and not allow these to impact others.

Arjun and Malaika made their relationship official in 2019 and dated for a few years before news of their split surfaced. Despite the breakup, Arjun reportedly supported Malaika following her stepfather’s unexpected death, showcasing his continued respect and support for her during a difficult time.
