Hyderabad: Former couple Arjun Kapoor and Malaika Arora were once one of Bollywood’s most talked-about pairs. They began dating in 2018 and, though private at first, soon shared glimpses of their romance through holiday photos and birthday wishes. After being together for years, the couple parted ways in 2024. Following the breakup, they avoided meeting in public and maintained their distance.
An Unexpected Reunion
That is why their unexpected meeting at the Homebound premiere in Mumbai became the highlight of the evening. Arjun attended the screening to support his sister and the team, while Malaika also joined the event. For the first time since their split, the two were seen greeting each other with warmth.
