Marking the special occasion, Malaika took to Instagram and shared a candid picture of her firstborn. Arhaan’s birthday has made Malaika emotional as she could not be with him on his special day. “My birthday boy. I miss u loads,” she captioned the post.

For the unversed, Malaika’s son is currently studying abroad. Earlier in the interview with ANI, Malaika opened up about how she has been maintaining a long-distance relationship with her son.

“It’s a new beginning for him. His journey to the new world has started — living all by himself and managing everything on his own. It’s also new for me because I have always had him around me all these years and now suddenly not having him around me makes me feel sad. It’s heartbreaking but I am super proud of him,” she had said.

Arhaan’s also received a cute birthday wish from his aunt Amrita Arora. Taking to Instagram Stories, Amrita wrote, “Happy birthday my favourite boy. I love you boo.” Arhaan was born to Malaika and Arbaaz in 2002.
